Not really. Sounds like his family is extremely happy about the situation off the ice. As for the Jackets, they are right in the thick of the Bedard sweepstakes and even if they miss out on him they are likely getting an elite forward. They have a top half prospect ranking not counting what they will add this season. I expect about three years into the deal opinions will change especially given the Flames will possibly be hitting a downturn when the Jackets ascend.
