The risk in contract status is why the Flames got the return they did. It is a very good risk return on a depreciating asset from the Flames perspective. You still haven't answered if the answer is no to long term contracts, do you think it would be better to take a lesser return?

I trade commodities for a living and you have to trade and make decisions with imperfect information, the people who need every detail nailed down miss the opportunity and usually get left sitting on the sidelines. It is all about how Treliving manages the position going forward and I think if he was going to sit on a losing position he would have just signed Tkachuk to a one year deal and hoped he would change his mind.
