I guess so. There isn't much of a history of Flames players re-signing here for large overpayments, so I guess I am just waiting and seeing until that actually happens. I remember many on this board stating that Gio wouldn't re-sign here for less than $9M and every year that UFAs won't come here.

Then again, I was pretty confident Johnny would be extended this summer. Unlike the Panthers, the Flames aren't clearly trending in a positive direction so UFA status has to be more appealing than it would be otherwise.
