Neither brad nor ownership “allowed” anything. The CBA allowed it and there’s not a goddamn thing Brad, ownership or anyone else could do to prevent Johnny from leaving if he so chooses. For all we know they offered him the max over 8 years, he could still say no and leave.
And no matter what kind of rumours you heard from the orange Julius guy, no reputable source has reported anything even suggesting that the flames or ownership had an opportunity to sign Johnny for $9m per and refused to do so.
