If a bunch of teams contact Gio while he’s a UFA and then he signs with Calgary for less than they were offering it is a pretty easy conclusion to draw that there was a handshake deal.
And I suppose there’s a risk he changes his mind and signs elsewhere in which case you lose him, and don’t get the full cap release that expansion would have given.
