Both guys have absorbed what happened, digested it , accepted it and now embrace the idea of being a Calgary Flame.
I'm stoked to see what kind of impact these guys have here and I'm not lying when I say I high fived myself when Johnathan said he'd get Lindy 50......thats like Messier guaranteeing the W in my books and he is the guy with the ability to do that.
Hot damn 🔥 can we start hockey sooner????
Get them signed Brad !!!!! NOW and no f ing around this time. Get r done!

I really don't think Brad f'd around with the last two. A contract takes two parties to want to sign.

Weegar definitely came off as very well spoken, here are a few clips of him in a less formal setting on Missin Curfew (apparently he played with Shane O'Brien back in 2014 when Weegar was an AHL rookie):
From June 2021 (starts at 1:25:00, he specifically talks about his "friend" Huberdeau at 1:33:20):
From June 2022 (starts at 103:25):

Its not like they are swimming in cap space over there either. Maybe if Price retires they'll have a bunch of space but I assume he'll be a LTIR guy until his contract runs out.
He will never sign here. It isn't a Canadian thing, it's a weather thing for Phil. I can't remember if it was the athletic or somewhere but I read his priority in location is year round nice weather now.
They don't have year round Weiner stands on the street in Calgary. AMARITE?!
To be honest, Flying a player out for a day for a media availability and a photo opp is a waste of resources and time. Player probably doesn’t want to do it, and it really doesn’t matter to the average fan, we’re watching it on a screen anyway, not like we get to shake his hand.

I think the only way they fly in for that sort of thing is if they signed long term
Agents often analyze the market and advise players to put the teams most likely to trade for them on their no trade lists.
Possible they weren't expecting Calgary to land him.
Yeah, though an 8 team list might be 50-50 undesirable vs strategic like that. So Bottom 4 desirable teams (Winnipeg/Buffalo/Ottawa/Seattle) and then 4 that would really want you. And yes, if you predicted Gaudreau re-signing, Calgary’s not a big concern.
Only reason they wouldn’t sign this summer is if they never really want to be here
Or Treliving doesn’t give them a fair contract
Hahaha. What?
There are a dozen reasons why either player might not be in a rush to sign his (likely last) long term contract with a team for whom he has never played.
