The Flames haven’t extended Tkachuk (same situation as Point was in), or Gaudreau - yet we went out and spent in free agency on Coleman. Everything just comes across as so short sighted with this team.
There was a pretty significant milestone with Gaudreau and Tkachuk today, and neither has a contract beyond this coming season.

This is not a significant milestone, it's one day.
UFAs that haven't been extended: Barkov, Coutourier, Zibanejad, Parayko, Forsberg, Bergeron, etc.
RFAs that haven't been extended: Boeser, Dubois, McAvoy, Werenski, etc.
Just the lightest handful of each.
Stop making up imaginary dates of importance, watching the team miss them, and then getting upset about it. You'll be a lot happier.
Point, Gaudreau and Tkachuk arent the only three guys who need contracts. And the Flames arent the only team that went around handling "short sighted" business before signing guys to extensions
the first day.
Relax.
