A podcast came out with Guy and Jane Gaudreau on an episode. Apparently they talk about the trade in the last 10-15 minutes although I'm not in a place where I can listen as of yet, and it seems they thought Johnny was signing in Calgary up until the day before free agency. Probably worth a listen.
