Lol this thread was both funny to read and also a complete waste of time with the dumb remarks about someone not signing here.
Adam Fox and Matthew Coronato are two different people. Just because they will or have gone to Harvard at some point in their life doesn’t mean that they’ve got the same mentality.
As a recent example and a similar player that scores goals, did Cole Caufield stay in Wisconsin until he was UFA? No, in fact, he was a force in the playoffs for Montreal.
Did Gaudreau? No, he signed with us. And look where he is now. I’m sure Gaudreau could be a mentor to Coronato since Coronato looks up to Johnny (or down if we’re talking literally)! Coronato is smart enough to look at the roster and see Calgary’s glaring need for a goal scoring right-handed shot player. Assuming he pans out to what he’s capable of, he would be paid handsomely here.
Yes, you’ll get those few like K. Hayes, Vesey, Fox, who want to choose where they play. It’s unfortunate, but that’s just how it goes. I’m just happy we have a great scouting group that is able to find these gems.
Do I wish Fox were here? Of course. Will I dwell on it? Hell no, there’s nothing I can do about it.
