Regardless of all of this, and apologies if it's been discussed already as I haven't read the entire thread, but is there really much of a trade market for Kipper at this point anyways? The writing is on the wall that this is Kipper's last season so he'd be purely a playoff rental, and aside from Toronto, Detroit, and possibly St Louis, I don't see any of the current playoff teams going out of their way to acquire Kiprusoff. Even then, I would think that the Flames would want back the kind of package that Vancouver is asking for in Luongo, and that is clearly not flying with other GMs.
