I highly doubt what anyone "hears" until things actually happen.

Bennett and team are far apart! Might go overseas! - Signs hours later to a great contract...

Burke plays down everything too. There's not a single time he hasn't shot down whatever the latest rumour was. So that's just Burke. If it's been confirmed by Jagr's camp that the Flames have spoken to him/his agent over this free agency period then clearly there is interest, even if they do like the space they have as well. Treliving wants to ice the best team possible. And if Foo/Ferland (dicey options..) can't adequately fill the 1st/3rd RW spots then surely Treliving will look at extenal options, of which Jagr has clearly appealed to them at least somewhat.
