I never claimed that was the report, just my belief. I just base my belief on things he said, on how his dad dealt with contracts, how he held out, and finally on what he eventually demanded, which was a ticket to UFA at the earliest possible time.

I mean, res ipsa loquiter.

At the end of the day, he became the highest paid Flame and set for an even bigger payday in the final year. What were the demands for a “6,7,8 year deal” that he would have signed? Obviously more than what he was given. The hindsight stuff is kind of crazy. Go look back and tell me the highest salary anyone advocated for a long term deal.
