Johnny might think he know's what he will want in 6 years (for the record I don't think he's even given it an ounce of serious thought outside of spit balling with family and friends), but he actually doesn't. Why? Because so much can change in six years. For all he knows, the Flames will treat him like garbage for the next 6 years and he'll be running for the door. For all he knows, the coaching and management staff will have done a complete turn over and he will have no idea how he feels about the new management until they actually exist. Maybe he meets a nice Calgary girl and they have kids and he won't want to uproot his family?

This messed up obsession with what is a 23 year old going to want over half a decade from now. Give it up. He didn't ask for a trade now, that's all that matters and he's locked in pretty long term. Sorry, we don't get know everything, and we certainly aren't able to predict the future so stop trying, it's completely messed up.

He can do pressers later.
