Yu are assuming he has made up his mind and it is written in stone. That is very unlikely the case. The more likely scenario is he is using his position and flexibility to see how it plays out.
Even if he is set on staying with the Flames, it is still in his best interest to keep things on the edge here, to maximize his negotiation strength
As soon as he does you a solid and tells the Flames what he is going to do, his position is weakened. But yours is strengthened, so he's obviously being an ass.
