On the surface, I'd have to agree. I can't figure out what else could be going on. The contract shouldn't be that complicated, but what else could be holding it up?
1) The player doesn't want to sign here, which as Rob Kerr said today, would be strange considering that Erixon came to the rookie camp, etc.
2) Could there be a trade in the works?
3) The Flames are trying create a level of suspense by announcing his signing at the latest possible moment.
4) Something that I can't think of and hasn't been mentioned here.
