Obviously they would not continue since other team's offers, ones that were not seeing it as a rental, would have blown his away. This took weeks too, there were no last minute surprises on what Stone was going to do. In fact, these same insiders said that Stone was going to sign with whatever team trades for him.
Anyways, none of us were in the room so we can't say for sure. But to me the fact that the talks lasted that long indicates that Stone wasnt a rental.

Ar you deliberately misreading these posts? Treliving wasn’t pursuing Stone as a rental. He got out when it was clear Stone would only be a rental in Calgary, and the price was too high for that.
