There was none, so Calgary bows out and Ottawa takes Vegas' package and Stone signs immediately long term.
That's more or less how it went down, from what I could gather.
Not dumb at all.

From my recollection, the big thing was that Treliving was insisting on the D piece going out being Oliver Kylington, whereas Vegas was offering Brannstrom. Ottawa wanted Valimaki, and Tre refused to move Valimaki because he saw a Giordano replacement in Valimaki.
Considering his brother literally lives here fulltime, I doubt Calgary was such an unattractive destination for Stone as it's being painted as.
