And this kind of thinking would apply even more to trading with the oilers, for example. It would have to be a massive, massive overpay for the flames to ever consider trading a valuable piece to the oilers that could help them win. |
Who’s reporting this? iphone4lyfe???? Sounds legit. Internet chatter doesn’t hold much water.
If the oilers had the best deal on the table for Tanev, as an example, you’re suggesting the Flames take a lesser deal?
That’s pretty shortsighted. Again, Conroy’s job is to make the Flames better, not prevent the Oilers, or the Leafs, from getting better.
