My guess is contact has been stalled on a one-way vs two-way contract.

Hey i agree with what you are saying if it was me i would sign a 2 year deal and make more on the next contract if this next 2 years go well. But just the fact Feaster said right from the get go his comment about Brodie was not about money is was addressing length of contract only.. He said "we are looking at getting a 1-2 year deal done with "the" player. This tells me Brodie wants a longer contract. So agree on a the middle 3 years is what the Flames should. Brodie by wanting a 4 year or even 5 year is saying i like it here but i want security.
But if it has nothing to do with any of that and is like you said more about the Flames throwing in a 2 way in their then i would tell them to pound sand and again i would use Butler as the example. No 2 way deal signed there and Brodie is much better D man.
