Again, all because I suggested that Treliving set an internal deadline and stick with it so he had certainty about the direction at the draft to avoid the situation the Flames currently find themselves in.
You seem to be looking at maximizing the "profit" by hoping Gaudreau signs last minute, I'm minimizing the "loss" by not going into the draft blind and avoiding the worst case scenario. Both happen in the "real world".

Just had a look. I think you're confusing me with someone else.
I said bullying, and scaring others ... have certainly accused you of avoiding the question (which you did), and putting words in my mouth.
I try and avoid personal attacks not really my thing. So if you think that's what I've done I guess we either have a different interpretation of what a personal attack is or we differ in thickness of skin.
Back on topic it's probability.
You don't close off a 50% chance of retaining your best hockey player, especially if the alternate route is a mid to late round pick as a "win"!
