I wonder if Tre got a desperate call from the agent yesterday after Philly pulled out?

Then again JG could have waited it out more and see who came calling if it was just money and change of scenery. With Columbus being a 90min flight to Philly it was prob his 4th option after the east coast options dried up.

Its the wife who I'd boo.

waiting it out wont do shit. If anyone wants you and have the cap space they wouldve made the offer on day 1 already I think. To go to Columbus, likely never have a chance to win the cup. and take less money... ya I dont get it.

I think it's obvious that his wife wears the pants.

What I dont understand is... he can test free agent and circle back to the flames if he wants. We still have the cap space. But he still took the lesser deal. Flames wouldve been okay with 10.5x7

I think the Flames bridge was burned when he strung them along. Treliving should've known and planned for this and agree with setting a hard deadline well before July 12th. A debacle of monumental proportions.

[DonJuan]

This deal was signed by the wife.
Boo her.

Maybe Chucky sees this as an example and doesn't try to bleed every cent he can. Pretty sure he gone too.

Maybe his wife wears the pants because he got caught with his pants down in bed with a local media girl and knocked her up.

Remember that silly rumour about Pronger in Edmonton?

[gwill]

flyers are on the record saying they didn't bother trying for Johnny.

Toronto star article best sums up how crazy the signing in Columbus is.

How Long until people wrap their brains around that the wife had nothing to do with him leaving?

Edited: looks like Johnny's press conference in Columbus is going on. He stated going back home to play had nothing to do with his decision to sign there.

He specifically said he needed to sign anywhere but Calgary. OUCH!

[max_boost]

Dang this is all crazy.

[killramos]

Johnny who?

Johnny who?

Could be exactly what he was looking for by going to Ohio

[gwill]

look for the video of Johnny walking into his press conference. So awkward... he looks ashamed. He could barely fake a smile. For someone so excited to screw his old team over he certainly didn't look happy going to his press conference.

[DonJuan]

Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekalainen told The Athletic conversations with Gaudreau picked up steam late in the afternoon.

"It kind of came out of the blue," he said. "It was like are you serious about this?"


Now I dunno... So I'm gonna boo the wife even harder.

[2Legit2Quit]

Fuck this guy

[killramos]

Johnny whodreau?

[Buster]

Columbus must have good cocaine?

[88CRX]

Yea that press conference is super fucked up.

Johnny gonna get booed endlessly here... and deservingly so. Fuck that guy. But something went down Tuesday with Johnny and the Flames organization, no doubt... and probably tied to Murray Edwards is my guess.

[DonJuan]

Quite the about face. WTF happened Tuesday?

Did they accidentally put his full nickname Johnny "Regular Season Hockey" Gudreau on the contract?

Rumoured that Murray Edwards called Johnny directly to tell him their best and final offer.... if thats true, Edwards fucked this up.
