Good signing by BT.

its a one year deal; if Mangiapane is worth 1M + he'll be able to cash in on his next contract...

Glad that BT didn't soften his stance too... i like the kid, but he had 13 pts last year: it would have been silly to hold out based on his production/history

Johnny missed the boat. If he’s looking for his next deal this offseason compared to when he signed his, he’s making way more..

Lindholm didn’t have near the resume Mitch had.

Calgary is lucky to be in the position they are.

Edit: Same goes for Monahan of course.

Happy to have Yeastmode signed!

I'm sure he's disappointed he didn't get a bigger contract, but he gets the chance to earn it now. Go butter that bread!

Yep Gaudreau, Monahan and Lindholm are all good contracts, but can't compare to the Marner situation. Different players, signed at different times.

Not that I think Dubas is a good GM. He doesn't seem to be.

Anyway let's see what happens with Tkachuk.

It's crazy how great the top level guys' contracts areo (Monahan Gaudreau, lindholm, Backlund, Giordano, Brodie, hamonic, hanafin ), yet the flames are still cap strapped.

Different times is the big one. Johnny gets 10+ all day in today’s RFA market. Calgary is lucky these wild contracts didn’t fly until after they got two franchise players locked.

Just another negotiation win by Brad.

This isn't the Oilers, you don't get extra dough just for the sake of player pleasing. Tre is hard but fair, and the contract drawn up is always within the team model that keeps them competitive. The same will go for Tkachuk.

...sent two hours after the player signs a barely league-minimum contract.

All good teams are always cap strapped.

Mangi did Treliving a big favor. Mangiapane was do this for the team in good faith for a better RFA contract from the Flames next year.

How? By signing his contract?

The only favour Mangipane extended was to himself with this decision. The kid needs to be in camp, and he needs to play this year. Now he gets the chance to show the team what he is worth.

I was going to say wow huge cave but then again Mangiapane had zero leverage. Good work BT. Now concentrate on Chucky.

Different times, but Treliving has stuck to the same philosophy throughout IMO. The fact RFAs like Marner have walked their way to bigger contracts is on a couple particular GMs.

Yeah, at the end of the day it is less if a cave and more common sense kicked in. His agent tried and ended up coming to the conclusion they weren't going to win this battle. At least he missed fitness day.

Not to mention the credibility lost analyzing a contractual situation so blatantly poorly.

He still has to do his fitness testing.
