Or maybe they think that they can fleece every other GM in the league by trading some utility player(s) for a bona fide RW (say).

And of course, they could all manage the salary cap soooo much better than the Flames / Tre are currently doing, end up first in the division and likely win a Cup.

Um reality sucks, folks. Life isn't that way. Everyone isn't stupid.

I'm pretty sure that tomorrow Tre will pick up 1 or 2 overpaid hackneyed vets that have outlived their usefulness everywhere else in the league and that they missed the 4 or 5 guys who really could have helped and he could've gotten for cheap (remember, the underpaying part, right?).

Wow, reading this thread, just wow.

Then again - happy Canada Day (soon)!
Too many people think the game is played on paper, that's all. It's definitely tiring to see but once you go through a few threads like this you know what posts to skip and not bother reading
