I don't buy the "show Johnny we want to win" mantra, we've done that the last 3-4 years and have nothing to show for it. If he's not going to talk contract at all until after the season is over Tre's backed himself into a really bad corner, and this deadline could sink the franchise even further by surrendering high picks and then losing Johnny for nothing.

Giroux would never be anything more than a deadline deal. His cap hit will be too high for Calgary to fit him in long term.
