Flames offer wasn't much at the time compared.

I'm surprised they didn't take the NY offer, Kovalev was highly toted, as were Amonte and Weight coming out of college with big numbers. Vanbiesbrouck was one of the best in those years. 12m and 3 more first rounders.

They took the Forsberg package knowing he was signed in Sweden for 3 more years...interesting.
