He is saying Calgary has a high bar value-wise, and that it would have to be somewhere they believe Markstrom would want to go before they approach him.

Sec has said the Flames have had conversations with him about possibly where he would be willing to accept a trade (somewhere with a contending window).

Weekes put out a rumour'ish tweet out about Marky.

That's what we know. We'll see if something happens, if something does - it means the Flames are getting good value back and it's to somewhere Marky would like to go.

So, it's status quo or a Win-Win situation with the Flames and Marky.

To me, trading Markstrom makes a lot of sense. Vladar seemingly doesn't have a market out there of note, and the Flames need to promote Wolf soon if they want to continue down this road of rewarding young players when they deserve it. So yeah, if they can get a good return (and they should be able to)...win-win.
Here is what I know and have said all along, unless someone vastly overpays and they can convince Markstrom to waive his NMC he isn't going anywhere. Will the team listen if someone calls in him? Sure, you always listen. Is anyone going to make the kind of offer I believe it would take for Conroy to even approach Markstrom about moving? Highly highly unlikely.
