Seems like a mistake to me.

That's what Royle said they are doing. My comment says my opinion is at some point they should budge before the season. Why? Sometimes the difference in the better return is really only a minimal gain. Some posters on here act like a late 1st is gold and a 2nd is significantly less valuable. It is not if the 1st is past the top 20. Maybe 2% more likely to add an impact player with a late 1st vs any 2nd.
Also, Kuznetsov and Soloyov are both 24/25 years old, have 200+ games in the AHL and deserve a crack. I think it would be better for the team if they start the season with the Flames. Also, there is a pretty decent chance that the offers actually do not get better or even worse as the season goes on. Can anyone actually guarantee they offers will improve and by how much?
