I don't pretend to know what he and his agent are thinking but it's possible they are looking at potentially how bad the Flames roster looks for the next couple of seasons and realize he's probably going to have some rough nights and an unflattering +/- playing for this team which may not set him up for a big payday whearas a three year deal for moderate money with hopes in year three the team starts an upward tragectory bolster's his worth more.
