So should Darnell Nurse and Seth Jones, yet here we are.
Barkov is elite at his position, and Johnny is elite at his. Yes, Barkov’s position is more important - but also, Barkov signed in sunny Florida with a contending Panthers team. If the Flames want to extend Johnny, there will be a premium paid…unless Calgary makes some pretty dramatic changes to move the team from a non-playoff team/bubble team to a contending team.
