I respect the tough approach to star players and not being afraid to play hardball and walk away, but with that opinion you certainly need to factor in the market you're talking about.
If places like Calgary play hardball with too many star players, you'll just never have star players. We need to understand that this isn't Florida or California or a good chunk of the US to be honest. We're already at a huge disadvantage in attracting and retaining talent.
