He could take a couple more shots with some good Flames teams and when it’s time to retool in a couple years (which is inevitable) maybe Philly or NJ are contenders looking to add some high end talent.

Johnny’s contract at $10M per season in 4 years may not look so good to a contender with little cap space.
