I am just going off history. I asked Burke the same question at a Luncheon he spoke at in 2017 when Treliving was a pending free agent GM why they hadn’t signed him but they did get that deal done as well which is pretty much what Burke had alluded to when answering the question. When Treliving left in 2023 his contract lapsed. It is not out of the norm for the flames to take this approach.
