Perhaps that was his mandate from ownership? Perhaps he was told by Gross they were almost there?

Again, you nor I nor anyone not in the room know this, which makes it clearly not a "fact".

If you allow someone as long as possible to make a decision don't get mad at them for taking every second of that time to make it.
Johnny didn't handcuff the Flames. Treliving did and maybe owners if they were involved. Fold your cards and play the next hand if the stakes are getting so high that you have more to lose.
Just more of the same.

You clearly won't consider everything involved and the outside influences that were at play to some degree. You want to blame BT alone...fill your boots i guess.

Either way, again, no one involved in this comes out looking good other than a hockey team in Ohio.
