The only explanation I guess is that the Flames' pro scouts think last year was an anomaly and he's closer to the double digit goal / ~30 point version, but even there I feel like there are guys who will be available for 1.8M in the bargain bin later in the summer. That's more than what Duclair signed for last season, for example.

Never understood why Flames didnt take a flyer on Duclair.
