He likely named his price last year and management balked. Was that a good move?

There is no uncertainty at all that MacKinnon will continue to be one of the most dominant forwards in the NHL after his next contract. At this time last year, the same could not be said about Gaudreau. That is the difference; that is why the comparison doesn't work; that is why your attempt to depict this as a huge mistake for Flames management is so obviously transparent.
