I don't understand why so many people think the Flames will land Tavares. If the Islanders don't feel they will sign him, they will trade him before the deadline so a team has exclusive rights to try and sign him. And some team will give a 1st round pick. The Flames of course do not have a 1st and the Isles won't let Tavares walk without getting anything for him. I wish I was more positive, but I just don't see it happening.
