Guaranteed, if the offer made sense, the transaction takes place.
To those of you that are bitching, please let me know when you want to sell your house/car

If I put my house on the market today...I would get market value. It wouldn't necessarily be what I hoped I would get. The only reason I should hold on selling is if there are strong indications that the market is going up. Over the last two weeks we saw the market peak and the Flames were seemingly late to making a decision. The value of players in the context of draft picks is going down between now and the draft. The best one can hope for is that the flames get a higher value hockey deal at the draft or catch a team disappointed with their player being taken that then throws away picks for players (unlikely). Those of us that are unhappy with the overall direction are disappointed because this was likely the best opportunity the team had to maximize draft capital.
