Optically, that would be a disaster for NYI, so i could see them approaching McDavid levels, if the alternative they were facing was losing him for nothing.
but UFA's don't have to sign for the max; if JT is close with Hamonic, that counts for something, especially if the Flames offer is competitive...
While i am still pretty skeptical on whether it would ever happen, it might not be Mission Impossible either.

I still think he will re-sign with the Islanders. Similar to Stamkos the other year he will get done, everything indicates he wants to stay there
