I wonder what the flames strategy could be here? Have conversations with interested teams and if they reach a certain threshold do the flames give other teams the chance to talk contract or do they just deal him as is? I’d think they could maximize the return if they allow teams to negotiate and potentially sign for a long term deal. Though if some teams don’t like the asking terms they’d likely back out. I dunno. They just have to hit a home run from this as it sets up their future for the next five years or so, I think.
