Bold move by the Flames, I was hoping the Oilers would make him an offer but why try to address your teams biggest problem.

I can see the Av's matching this though its only a two year deal.

Not a big shock.

I still don't get the Flames offer though. If they really wanted O'Reilly they would of offered something like 5 years 25+ million.

Hilarious how the situation turned out. Flames caught a huge break that the Av's matched.

For those that don't know, Had the Av's not matched, ROR would have had to clear waivers before he could go to the flames. Some other team would have picked him up and Calgary would have still lost their draft picks

I read that too. Calgary is a pretty poorly run team to say the least

God I wish Colorado wouldn't of matched.

The Flames are such a mess. Ownership needs to look in the mirror and finally realize they need to blow this team up already.
