Scorp brought it up in his radio spot when the two Edmonton guys were mocking the Flames for the O'Reilly one. He went back to Selanne.
I think it was actually the Leafs who offersheeted Ohlund IIRC 10 million for 5 years. That was in the 90's under totally different rules. I can't remember if by 97 the compensation had been adjusted or if it was still arbitration for a player from another team where both teams submitted their desire.
Those days were fun...Blues got Scott Stevens...lost him a year later when they signed Shanahan. Rangers got Adam Graves from the no goods and gave up Troy Mallete.
