The Calgary Flames were on both ends of some major splashes this most recent off-season, including Johnny Gaudreau leaving.

Obviously, Gaudreau signed with the Columbus Blue Jackets, despite the Flames and other clubs offering him more money. However, as his parents have shared, their son was expecting to be in Calgary for his entire career.

But apparently, the Flames low-balled their star winger. As per Gaudreau's parents:

''The summer before, if the Flames had made an offer close to [his value], Johnny said, 'I would have been in Calgary for the next 8 years, that wouldn't have been a problem.' The Flames offered him a contract, but it wasn't even close to his value...it was a joke. He was really, really embarrassed.
