The only thing holding him here is legacy, and when he gets that offer he's going to weigh the pros and cons of staying and going, and there will be just way too many positives for him going back out east to be able to resist.
Hope I'm wrong.

I don’t know, I think if he really was completely set on going UFA to see what happens we wouldn’t be getting this all this semi-conflicting info from Tre/insiders/media. Just choosing to believe that Johnny and his agent are professionals that would tell the flames org if Johnny was definitely going UFA.
OTOH if Calgary doesn’t come up with an offer he likes (and it seems obvious that whatever is currently on the table isn’t enough) your scenario is scarily plausible.
