This isn't true. There was general belief he was heading to Vegas as a free agent. I don't think it's obvious at all that he would have signed with the Flames. They would have had the opportunity, but just because he signed with Vegas doesn't mean he would have signed with Calgary - even at the same dollar amounts.
