Well, clearly Johnny doesn’t give a flying $&@* about winning. Love the player but good riddance.

NJ, PHI, and NYI must not have come to the table with real offers.

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

A confusing 24 hours gets at once better and worse.

Why didn’t they do this at the draft.

Man, I'd be pretty upset with my agent given this outcome.

one of the more head scratching moves I've seen a player make?

less money, worse team, worse city, not even that close to home.

what.

I don't know if this is about money since we don't know what the Flames offered.

I don't know if this is about family, as this really isn't massively closer by plane.

But I can assure you one thing, it certainly wasn't about wanting to win.

Consider this a bullet dodged. Calgary isn't Tampa or Colorado..... but they aint the frikking Blue Jackets.

If he actually countered an offer to Calgary, he was of the mindset he was staying. You don’t counter unless you want to be there. Period. Brad, you didn’t move heaven and earth and do all you could. A counter, could have been signed and sealed. He’d be a Flame. This is such bs from both.

I'm going to put on my tinfoil hat and guess that you're right and then assume that he didn't come back because for the last 24 he and his Family were getting harassed by Flames fan.

Rejects Calgary to sign closer to home.

Signs no where near home.

What a crock.

As a Flames fan I kinda feel punched in the mouth. Not gonna lie.

If he signed this deal in Philly, NJ or NY I would have totally understood. But this is just..............?
