Regarding the whole flight thing -- not to be a Debbie Downer, but does scheduling someone for a flight really mean much? I think we can assume the Flames WANT Johnny playing in Sunday's game, and will obviously do everything necessary to make that happen. But if Conroy (and Hanlon?) are already in Philly on an exclusive chartered jet, I would be surprised if they DIDN'T have those seats already "reserved" for Gaudreau/Arnold/company to be coming back with them. It's not like these are seats on WestJet that they need to figure out and book in advance.
Maybe the source has more specific info but this may not be any different than having a hockey bag packed, jersey crested, and locker stall ready to go. He still needs to sign first.
