I want the Flames to sign him, but it would be foolish to think there is no risk in giving a 29 year old LW a $11M contract for 8 years.
You do this to try to win in the next 3 seasons but after that it's not going to look great.

I get that but do we really and honestly think that with a weaker team overall (which it will be because JG will be taking a huge amount of cap) that we are going to be good enough to beat the Ave's and Vegas. Because we were not even close this year, we were run out of the arena by the oilers who were then hammered by the Ave's. Even if we went back with the exact same team we are not winning the cup.
