He did a great job in year one with the Flames but it was such a big risk to sign a guy like that to a 5 year deal.

I doubt the deal will really hurt the Flames at any time but who knew that Frolik’s deal was going to be a roadblock down the road as well when it was signed.
Yeah it does feel like it could be a bit of an unforced error. As you say, I doubt it really hurts the Flames and maybe it's an important lesson.
