Bottom line is if he gets dealt Flames fans will likely be happy with the return and if he doesn't get dealt then there may be some disappointment but if the days of big deadline deals are drying up then so be it. Flames have already established under the new management that they aren't into trading roster players for disappointing returns to help other teams out.

Do people really believe this kind of nonsense?
No GM in the league gives a damn that the Flames didn't trade Cammy away easily last year. They will continue to try and get our assets for as less a return as possible. The reputation of the Flames has no impact in a trade negotiation. And yes, if the market only allowed for a 3rd rounder from Cammy...then of course we should have taken it. Every sensible person knew there was 0% chance he was returning....
