Lebrun did say he thought there were 2-3 other teams involved that thought he might sign an extension with them but in the end it didn't work.
In the end I've still heard Flames were willing to do the deal on that Sunday night, had agreed upon a trade, but then realized that Stone wasn't going to extend and it fell apart.
Imagine giving up the assets for Stone to just have him walk to Vegas in the offseason for free that year then anyway...that would have sucked.
