And that’s another thing, with how many players have asked out, it’s not crazy to think the tie breaker will go to guys they believe will be proud flames. Some might think it’s dumb but I feel more confident in Iginla/yakemchuk staying here long term. Yakemchuk being a fort Mac kid currently playing for calgary
Catton is also a Saskatoon kid, I’m sure Zary would be happy to have him here
