Gaudreau reneged on a contract offer. Won’t be the first or last time you hear about a player doing that potentially during free agency negotiations.
It really does seem like Gross might have already apologized to the Flames org though. As I’ve said I’ve never seen an agent speak so fondly, and so quickly about an organization he wasn’t able to come to terms with.
It was weird and makes more sense with what’s coming out now.

I doubt very much that it’s as strict and Gross may have made it clear in the meeting how it came about if he had nothing to do with it.
If JG went against his advice (making Gross lose face) and he lost $17M as result (some of which would go to Gross) Gross might decide he’s going to cut him loose anyway. After all, Johnny isn’t in new negotiations for 7 years. Gross has made his money on this contract.
