If Hayes and his agent insist on a guaranteed roster spot I hope he is not only told "No!", but that the Flames are not interested in players with that attitude. I could see Treliving standing up in the middle of the meeting, declaring it over and walking out.
I do not see a single scenario where Treliving stands up and walks out. This earning a spot stuff is just pablum for the fans, if they had a chance at a free quality asset during a period of time that they do not have a hope in hell of competing for the playoffs they take that free asset every single day of the week.
