Makes sense, Devils need to try and salvage their season. Flames can wait another 3 weeks.

Oh no. A countdown until they up their offer again. I'm terrified.

I dunno. It's always a gamble that they may go to Plan B if it suits their risk/reward model.

Gibson hurt and Saros getting lit up.. Conroy can take all the time he wants, Fitz will have to deal with it.

He knew that Huska was the hire a week before it happened, not sure if he's broken anything else since. Seems to personally know Vladar, based off past tweets.

Pure speculation on my part but my guess is they have lowered the retention % they were asking from the Flames but the Flames want zero retention so may not still get done.

And really for them they need to add a goalie, so if Flames aren't going to move Markstrom then you move to plan B
And really Flames should know by now if the deal is the best available thing on the market based on the offers they have compared to what the Devils were offering.

Well
It’s the only thing they can do (improve the offer with a time limit)
Apparently 12 hours ago they were so pissed off everything was dead
We have what they want and we hold ALL the leverage
If they go to “plan B”,it’s just a domino and perhaps someone else panics
Or
Worst of all, we end up keeping markstrom.

Shows how much I'd fold because in my opinion all these trade proposals are found money for Markstrom, I don't have much confidence in his play staying this elite going into the next few years especially with the age he's at. Trade him right now!

Imagine if we have 4 first rounders. We’d have to go for it and draft Tij somehow in that case, right?

Watch them go in with 5 and forego Iggy Jr while he's on the board.
I can hear the heads exploding through time.

I’d just accept that Iginla asked the Flames not to draft him at that point

The fact that they haven't pulled Wolf after 5 goals on 22 shots adds fuel to the fire that a deal is done.
