There's obviously not going to be much news on that topic for a while unless God forbid the surgery is a disaster. Let's hope that doesn't happen.
But it will be interesting to reflect back on. As Jiri states, some like Friedman have reported the Flames weren't that close. But they were definitely interested. And if they weren't close, it is by choice really because while the Sabres may have coveted certain players from Vegas, it's not like that offer was unbeatable. You could have offered more if you wanted him bad enough. To be seen if that would have been the right call.

Seeing what Buffalo got if the Flames weren't close Treliving should just step down now, they got Krebs who doesn't look any better than Dube at the NHL level(at least Dube has an NHL shot), A broken power forward and a middle 1st for Eichel and a 3rd.
Ridiculous we couldn't put a deal together to beat that "junk" for Eichel.
Prediction: By this time next season even the most supportive Treliving fans will want him gone because of this.
