Strictly my opinion here, but I believe there is more at play than what's on the surface. I believe if Johnny doesn't ultimate plan to be a long term Flame, and doesn't want to sign long term, (bold prediction time) they may move him in the coming month for something huge. His value is off the charts, and I'm pretty sure you could net a huge fish with him.
I have nothing to base this on but a gut feeling, but something is telling me, Calgary is not in his long term plan.
Simply an opinion, nothing more. But I'm pretty sure there more than just dollars and term involved here.
People would have called you crazy if you predicted something like Subban/Weber a year ago. I feel we might see a similar type of move.
