I am not interested in Nylander at his likely ask and would rather not have a high profile pending UFA who is managed by Lewis Gross being Flames property.

Not too sure what Gross has to do with it. I can’t imagine he advised Gaudreau to lead the Flames to believe he was coming back only to change his mind at the 11th hour. Bear in mind, Gross took a huge hit there as well by Gaudreau signing for +$15M less than what the Flames had on the table.
Also, Gross was Conroy’s agent, they probably have a good relationship.
