Considering his brother literally lives here fulltime, I doubt Calgary was such an unattractive destination for Stone as it's being painted as.

Stone has talked about it publicly, he wanted to go to Vegas. If Treliving and the Flames felt he would have signed here long term, then I would imagine he would have met the Sens price.
Not sure why people assume it was Treliving who backed out. He would have known exactly what the situation would have been, while none of us do.
