I think it's because of the 1st to take Monahan business. But that's sunk cost and we need to let go of it.
Money wise, it shouldn't matter to the bottom line as the team is revenue positive and spends to the Cap anyways. So it's the "feeling" of paying someone who's not here more than the actual act.
I disagree with this mentality, and think it underpins a lot of the things i disagree with that happen with the club, but it is not my money.

This would be true if the flames never retained. but right now they are using 2/3 spots, and by all accounts are actively looking to use 3 of 3.
