If it is not going to arbitration then you don't think that the Flames management ( and the talking heads that manage fan opinion) and the players agents are not monitoring this forum and haven't picked up the overwhelming meme on the Flames team is too small and soft and Bennett being far more valuable on this team then he would be on a regular team that got to the second round of the playoffs?

Why would an arbitrator or GM of a hockey team, give one iota of a care as to what fans say or think of a player in regards to his value to that team?
And how does a management team "manage" my or your opinion?
As for player agents, if they are monitoring CP in an effort to get a better deal for their client...well they are doing it wrong. Really wrong.
