I don't get that vibe that he was unhappy not getting re-upped in offseason or in the first month, and that's why his agent is doing this now. His contracts have all been offseason.
Maybe the Flames haven't engaged his agent yet in the way they expect, but still, I think Zadorov if unhappy probably would've said something himself, not through the agent. I don't think the Flames want any part in trading him at this time, before this, at least not until Christmas and see where the team is and he is at.
To me and the timing of this seems as if it's more than just him looking forward to July 1 already, instead that it's something he's not happy with as being part of this team.
In the end, it doesn't matter, he's now traded sooner than later for whatever reason, unless he comes out and says his agent misspoke, which he hasnt.
