Signing guys in Calgary costs more, its just the reality. The leagues #2 scorer isn't giving Calgary a bargain

I mean Tkachuk wanted to go to Florida and got to pick them a year before UFA, they were obviously getting a bargain, there is no way Calgary gets him for that even if he wanted to stay
It’s certainly relevant when you sign the player.

It isn’t relevant when you try to move him. It is what it is.

I don’t believe posters are questioning the amount they gave Huberdeau as much as they signed him at all. But many are understanding the difficulty of moving $84MM worth of contract.
