Hey, if that's a victory to them, makes them feel like they do their due diligence as management, then all the power to them.

Meanwhile teams like Tampa, Florida and soon to be Vegas will be lifting hardware in the years to come.
It all depends on the actual price being paid

Let's assume that rumored ask from NRD podcast is true

Krebs = Zary
Brisson = Pelletier
Tuch = Mangiapane (Both 25 with identical stats last year)
2022 1st round pick

Honestly I'm not sure I would want to give up all that - while also having to give up other pieces because Flames would still have to move another ~$6M to be cap compliant.

If the price for Vegas comes in and it's like:

Krebs
1st
2nd

Then sure we can fault them on that. But until the trade actually happens I can't fault them for not wanting to pay a price that up to this point none of the other 31 teams have been willing to pay either.
