I know it's been discussed at length but now that this is confirmed, only good things can come of it.
1. Brouwer does NOT get picked by Vegas.
If Brouwer is still a Flame after the expansion draft I do believe he will have a fire lit under his arse next year because of this. Be the guy that Treliving was throwing that contract at. Show some leadership, heart and grit that he has in his career. That was the biggest part of giving him that contract. He will be better because of this.
2. Vegas picks Brouwer.
Can you say jackpot?

pretty much this.
i don't think anyone is 'sure' that Brouwer would get picked by vegas, but if he did, i think most fans would view it as a net gain (including guys that were pro-brouwer when he was signed, like myself)...
compare that to losing Ferland/Lazar... which would be a big loss of potential and which virtually all Flames fans would see as a major, avoidable loss...
I see this decision as a big kick in the butt for Brouwer and he will be better next year for it, be it with calgary or vegas...
