Literally the Flames hands were tied. Either the Flames could trade him to the NYR for far less than he is worth, or Erixon can be a poopface and refuse to sign a deal, and the Flames are compensated with even less.

Nowhere was it mentioned that Erixon ONLY wanted to play for NY. There is only idle speculation to that point.
He thinks that he is going to re-enter the draft and somehow make it down to the Rangers - otherwise he sits and waits for another 2 years?
Doubt that very much.
