Flames 100% did the right thing...there is no debating that. But the fact is they didn't have to, and if they wanted to they likely could have found a way to no pay him during that absence.  
 
But it's also not wrong to recognize the Flames did the right thing, while also saying that Kylington should have a level of gratitude and owes the Flames something due to that. 
 
If my company gave me 18 months of paid mental health leave I certainly wouldn't come back to work and ask for a raise....but I also wouldn't expect them to cut my salary and give me a pay cut.

The Flames had to pay his contract. You can't void a contract for mental health issues. 
Not sure why people keep repeating that like the Flames did it out of the goodness of their hearts.
