I didn't infer anything like that in my post. In fact I said that I wished the flames had offered perron more money than he got in st louis as I think it still would have been a better addition than derek Ryan at this current salary. This is too much money for a mediocre middle six player.

I just don't see a lot of use in the "I would have rather had ..." comments because it's not just money. Players have teams they'd be willing to sign with and teams that wouldn't have a chance regardless of cash.
My gut would say the Flames probably had talks with about a dozen players that they would have liked too, but were told either not interested, or only interested at a term or dollar level that would have been foolish.
