Citing "what's best for me," Christian has announced that he will not waive his no-trade clause, meaning that he will remain with Release the Hounds for the remainder of the season. This puts to an end the rampant speculation that Hounds GM Simon Maycock would engineer a trade by Tuesday's 3pm deadline.
"We looked at every different angle in terms of what my position has been and the situation of where I am at this stage of my career and all of that," said Christian. "I think at the end, I followed my heart and I just haven't felt the desire to go to any other team or play for any other team at this point."
It appears that in the end, he was swayed by his loyalty to the Hounds and the city of Toronto. "The Hounds have always had faith in me, ever since they brought me in from Zuma. Even when I pull out the money-maker, I know they believe I can do it. I can't walk away from that."
It was thought that the Beach team was looking to add him for depth, however, there may be more to the story. There have been whispers that the team most interested in acquiring Christian was MMV.
When asked about this report, Christian was quick to respond: "Fuck that shit."

Rumour has it that MMV picked up Wade Belak.
Hahaha... that's an awesome post. But unlike Mats, I actually like winning.
