I simply think that Treliving simply puts irons in every fire in hopes of improving his team but he only makes the deals that make sense for the Flames. It's obvious that no GM so far is willing to offer a 1st round pick for Talbot so it's a matter of interested GM's calling Sather's bluff. Let's face it the Rangers have been blowing a lot of smoke all weeks desperately trying to drive up the price to a 1st round pick. They likely won't get it and the real dealing can begin after the completion of the 1st round. Talbot is likely going to be moved for a 2nd round pick + a later pick or prospect and if Treliving's really hot and heavy for this guy he may make a deal but I wouldn't be surprised if nothing happens on the goaltending front for the Flames this weekend.
