Not sure if this is sarcasm... but having all our RFAs signed a month and half before training camp isn't taking a long time. We're probably the only team in the league with no remaining unsigned RFAs.

it really seems like it had been longer though. When you really look at it in the last 32 days the flames have had the draft, free agency, signed all key players, five day rookie camp while dealing with the dome issues. Pretty commendable job over the month if you ask me. The brain trust deserve all of august off.

Pretty sure Stuart wanted to resign, but couldn't because of Visa issues with his family.

I like the signing. I like the player.

Feaster has no one left to sign... the summer has finally arrived.

When is the Penticton tourney?

Pretty much a 4 page consensus of approvals.

Not surprised; the right deal for both parties. Well done.

2 years 2.125 cap hit right in the wheel house where 99% of CP assumed that the deal would be.
Glad it finally got done is in the books.
Fair deal for both sides, congrats to TJ !!!

You're upset? I can see being nervous before hand, but things worked out perfectly (or almost as you say). What's to be upset about? Let's be happy everyone

“I wanted to be signed before camp started," Brodie said. "The end of June, early July is a busy time for both sides, so being a restricted free agent and stuff, I knew I just had to be patient and knew we'd get a chance to talk and figure it out.

“I was pretty open to anything, whether it was long-term or short-term," Brodie continued. "I want to stay in Calgary and be there. I like the city and fans, but it's a matter of what they wanted to offer and what my agent thought was a good deal. I took everything into account.”
Quote:
“It's always in the back of your mind when it's not done," said Brodie of signing the contract. "Your first contract, you don't know how much negotiations go into it, so I didn't really know what to expect or a time-frame to expect.

“Now that it's done, I can completely focus on getting ready for the season.”
