its like if you go to a gas station and its labelled on the big sign as $1.12/L but when you get to the pump its $1.02 - if you go inside and tell them, they will probably thank you and change the price at the pump. If you fuel up then they can't charge you $1.12.
sneaky and underhanded? yeah.
in the wrong? no
Except if you do happen to lose the argument, all you do is pay a few more dollars. With Flames, they would've lost their 1st, 3rd, and not even get their "franchise player."

Much, much, much more to lose. It was stupid when the Flames are at a point that they need to give much more value to their draft picks and prospects. But since Feaster wants to throw away what will be a good pick, I guess they don't care about it that much.
