Probably, but they held so much leverage on him and signed him so quickly. He was an RFA that had been benched a bunch on his previous team (which was one of the big criticisms of the Flames when they traded for him).
I guess he held a little leverage on the Flames as "the return" for their top goal scorer, but still, it seemed like they could have spent more time to get a longer term deal done. I won't belabour this anymore as the point is more that he was a now and future piece and this thread is on Markstrom rumours.
