As for Erixon's agent's stance... Feaster said the agent did not express their concerns when the 1st offer was made. Only concern expressed was lack of interest of AHL... Feaster and Conroy later discovered there was serious problems. All of them seem to be short sited.
As for Erixon & his agent he should get 100% of the blame for this situation. He basically tried to hand pick which team he played for. For a guy drafted very low in the first round that's unheard of.
He better produce at the NHL level as he has a target on him..... Media and the fans will talk about the guy. I bet the Flames will trash talk the player....

So exactly what rule did Erixon break?
Turning down an offer and saying I don't want to sign with you now.... maybe later (if there is no other choice)?
How much blow back was there for Blake Wheeler (5th pick overall - compensation 35th pick who is now thrilled to be playing in Winnipeg),Umberger Vancouver 16th pick overall) Jarret Stoll and Lombardi who actual screwed the team drafting them even worse.
