You can say you have a plan B and just not tell the audience what it is.
It sounds terrible when you are unsure.

Giordano did not leave as a free agent. He was lost to the expansion draft. Seattle would have claimed another player, and Kylington was the next best player the Flames exposed.

He just looked genuinely frazzled and doing his best not to show how pissed off he is that Johnny took this to the last hour to tell the Flames he won't sign. He had a couple of slips where he was about to say "what Johnny just did to this team" implying how he hamstrung them in the end.
I didn't hear drivel. I heard a man trying not to lose his #### after just being ####ed without a courtesy spit.

Are you saying that without Johnny we would not have made the playoffs? Doesn’t say much about what next year will look like.

Absolutely shocking how the core from recent years has ended up.

The problem with the Flames is the current season is always the most important one. Always.

Treliving almost lost it there for a second.
He's taken this personally.

An even better GM would have signed him to league minimum! NTCs are ####ing standard for star players.

I like Pat but he is full of crap here, Johnny magically needed every second right up to free agency to make this decision is BS.

Are you really stupid enough to think that the business of an NHL team is to win the Stanley Cup? Follow the money!

I'm honestly not that upset. Johnny is a magical player to watch. And Johnny is better than Tkachuk. But Johnny is also older.
Having $20m tied up on two wingers is not a recipe for a Stanley Cup. The flames now have one less franchise winger, but also have an additional $10m in cap space. A year from now, Lucic and Monahan will be off the books. And if the flames can target a franchise center, they'll be a stronger team in 2023-24 than they were this year.

I think Johnny strung him along. He seems like he is seething under all the niceties.

Treliving’s pissed and he should be pissed at himself. Over confidence of singing Gaudreau.
Flames should have given Jonny a firm deadline for a decision, giving the player this much power over your franchise is not very smart.
I’ve never once been in the fire Tre camp but I’m getting there
