You have no idea, or at least you haven't provided any reason to think that Lazar was offered to 30 teams and only Calgary was interested.
Also between Cameron, Pascal and Treliving - the Flames brain trust had a book on this player that was likely much deeper than the management of other NHL organizations. They weren't just relying on a local scout.
