You may not agree, and certainly much more went into this decision, but people (players) don’t forget. Fact.
Flames bent over backwards for Gaudreau this time.
Markstrom,Tanev, Coleman and other signings are becuase the Flames don't play games or use the media to do their dirty work.
Frolik was a player coach agent thing.
Giordano was irrelevant here.

Burke brought back the respect that the organization lost with the prior GM and Treliving had upheld that standard.

Flames will get more positive mojonfrom the way they treated a star player from players in and out of the organizationz then negativity.

JG left soley because of family, and I do believe it was a hard decision for.him, thanks to the way the Flames treated him and his family in his entire time here and before signing him out of college.
