I get the argument that Bingo and yourself are making, but maybe Kulak feels the odds are against him surviving anywhere in the NHL. So take the guaranteed 900k instead of the 170k in the minors, and set yourself up strong for life's next chapter. Just a thought.

Another thought - this is a decent deal for the Flames. Most of us point to Valimaki and the others as ready to take Kulak's spot. But they may not. Lots of players in their positions never make the final step. At least the Flames know they have the security of Kulak having played #6 most of last season.
You may be right and thats all well and good, but I'd want our management to know that and act accordingly.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
