I'm just trying to imagine how badly CP would have melted down if Treliving had offered Gaudreau 8 x $10.5m after his 49-point COVID season.
So just let him expire? That's better?

It may very well have been around what he got in Columbus that summer. Fans would've got over it and continued to enjoy the best Flames line in decades.

I don't think Tre got serious enough on talks then because he assumed Gaudreau loved calgary and would be game to sign later.
