One thing I do know, is the Flames were very unhappy with the timing of the Markstrom thing and the comments.

Goes on to say another owner he spoke to also didn't like the timing because of how important the weekend was to the team.

Markstrom, his issue - on one hand he's upset because it's not the same team he signed with, on the other hand he's more upset because he feels he never should have been told he could be traded to New Jersey.

Says he didn't want to know about it unless it was happening. Speaks specifically to family obligations. Someone he spoke to said they didn't trade Markstrom because of how well he was playing, and how the team was playing and that they said "we could make the playoffs, and we're not doing this".

Whatever the case, Markstrom is upset about it.

Now that the event with Kipper is over, they have to sit down and think about this.
Goes on to talk about the fact that yes the Flames tried to keep Tanev recently. Hanifin is focused on getting a deal with teams he wants to play with, #1 is Tampa.
