If there's any truth to the rumour that a trade fell apart because King needed to okay it and he was unavailable because he was on a flight, you have to question why Yzerman wasn't willing to wait a couple of hours if the Flames were offering him a better return than the Kings?

Maybe the Kings were going to pull their offer off the table if not signed by their deadline. Not sure why they would do that but Lombardi is kind of an ass so maybe he was trying to keep Bishop from he Flames.
