I think September 12 is a better day for a signing

It really shouldn't matter...anything over 2.5-3M would be an overpay for Bennett...Flames should just assume that amount and move forward

If Sam wants more than that honestly he can pound sand and it wouldn't be anyone's fault but his own

Assuming the Flames want 3 years or more, there's no way it's going to be for less than 3M.

26 points...I'm sure the term is the holdup but he will be lucky to get 3M. waiver players have better numbers


Also, no way its more than 3 years

I agree 100%. 26 points is pathetic...and then you see the -16...

To say Bennett had a bad year is an understatement. He had a terrible year and should be compensated accordingly.

Yakupov was also drafted #1 overall....I'm not comparing Bennett to YakCity but with his current performance, it's very dangerous to be offering this kid any sort of term length on the contract.

Hmm... Edmonton Journal has a different version of events:

Asked about rumours dealing with the Calgary Flames, since denied by GM Brad Treliving, Jagr said there might have been something going on but one should not believe everything one hears. He said he might write a book about this one day, too. He said he would compare the situation to a complex and complicated poker game.

In other words - the Flames wouldn't cave on his demands for $4MM.

To the chagrin of the Jaromir Jagr conspiracy theorists, Flames roster for rookie camp lists Adam Ollas Mattsson as wearing jersey No. 68.
