Darren Helm has “mixed emotions” about joining Avalanche after 14 years with Red Wings – Denver Post
“Mixed emotions. Been here for a long time,” Helm said about leaving Detroit — likely for just one year. “I’ve raised a family here. I’m sure this will be home for my family when we’re done. (But) when I heard the news that everything had happened (with Colorado), I was extremely excited. Just really looking forward to playing with the Avs and being on a contending team.”
No easy way to say “I like it here but I want another chance at a cup before my career is over”, but mixed emotions is a great term for it.

Ripley wouldn’t go into detail regarding specifics surrounding the negotiations, other than to say that negotiations were “productive.”
