Personally when Tkachuk said he wanted out I was far less surprised than when Gaudreau left and I thought they were both going to bail.

I still think the reason people do not hate Tkachuk for it is because of the deal we got from Florida. Gaudreau paralyzed the team through draft weekend to leave us for Columbus. Many of us felt betrayed and angry being left for nothing. I think many were surprised the Flames had 5-6 teams to work with and were able to get multiple star players and futures back when the team had their back to the wall.
No. The team paralyzed itself. Gaudreau used every minute afforded to him, because why wouldn't he?
