I’ll be surprised if Johnny signs elsewhere, he’s being courteous to other teams and will politely decline and re-sign with the Flames.

That’s my prediction.
Your take is fine, but the bolded is kinda silly. He can't officially talk to other teams yet, and if it gets to that point it will have nothing to do with courtesy.

Timeline doesn’t really matter outside of the 8 year factor.
Landeskog signed an 8 year deal a few hours before the deadline.
