Johnny never cared about winning you guys, his record and style in the playoffs should have told everyone that. He wanted to be out east, took the best blend of money and location. Columbus is kinda far from jersey but it’s a hell of a lot closer than Calgary, not even debatable. One hour domestic flight. But yeah this is what I’m saying, we’re better off without him.

This is the dumbest use of the best possible UFA position I think I've ever seen. He got really bad advice.

Weird
I have to wonder if he assumed Philly could clear room and when they couldn’t, at least enough for what he wanted, he had to move to plan b?

Honestly he should have just come crawling back if this was the best offer he had available.

Who could've predicted that? Morons, both of them

Obviously wasn't a sincere counter

I said I'd never spend another dollar on an NHL product again, but it may be worth a single CBJ nosebleed seat to chuck a plastic snake at him and leave.

Flames are too cheap to give huge bonuses. 8 years at that cap would have been nice

I think the Flames dodged a huge bullet there. Wanted a non pressure market to play out his twilight years? He'll be lucky to put up 80 with that roster.

Wow. Just wow.
I was irritated that he left it to the last minute yesterday but understood a guy wanting to be close to his family, but this changes everything.
F you Johnny.

Very confusing. Maybe the offers he thought would be there just weren't.

I have been a Johnny supporter. But this looks like he played himself. The agent probably had him believing he could get him a good offer.

Instead of booing Johnny when he plays here we should laugh.
