Correct.
When you consider that the BJ’s got Laine and Roslovic for Dubois, you wonder what the Flames could have beaten that with.
Johnny wouldn’t have been close as I doubt they had any serious interest in a guy who likely would have no interest in staying. Calgary had no one like Roslovic, a local boy who likely will thrive and sign long term in Columbus.
Calgary would have had to do a serious overbid to match the intangibles involved in that trade.
