It was heavily speculated as time went on.
Larry Brooks linked the Rangers to Fox when he was still Flames property.
Reports came out that Fox's agent told Treliving he wouldn't sign with us, and there were further reports he was going to free agency regardless of what team he was traded to.
After the trade with Carolina, Eric Francis said he "would make a heavy wager than Adam Fox will never play for Carolina & he wants to play for the Rangers or Isles."
