^^ that’s how this negotiation should go.

Instead Calgary started with 9.5, which is dumb. Gaudreau should say $11 per and stick to it until free agency, because Calgary got greedy out the gate with a Ufa. Dumb by Calgary. This isn’t s RFA. It’s a UFa. The most important in Flames history. Stop ####ing around.

Need to be over $80mm in total contract value, and north of $82. Then you’ll re-sign him. Instead, Treliving is prioritizing the wrong things.
You have no idea what they have or haven't done...if they did though 9.5X8 is a SOLID offer, 76M is a pretty damn good starting place
