A new voice on the phone is going to fix that?
Or maybe it's Gaudreau and everyone he's talking to is fixated on the last two seasons and completely disregard his 2018-19 season. Move him anyway? Does the fresh voice have the ability to change that market perception?
The Flames had off seasons from pretty much any player that they would look to be moving. If you're out in that market and that's what you're seeing you can do a garbage swap or you can take pennies on the dollar or you can stand down and wait it out.
Or ... you can move futures to land a star that can uptick the existing core.
But we're not really enamored with the Flames core as a group on CP, why do you think Treliving would be able to convince GMs around the league otherwise? Why would a fresh voice on the phone have better luck?

IMO, most logical and best post of the thread.
