I am extremely confident the Flames do covet Mercer, I am fairly confident the initial offer included Holtz and a 1st, I have heard multiple things about why the deal went off the rails as has everybody else. I have heard about multiple packages but not in a while because as I said trying to get info on Markstrom has been a bitch to put it lightly. It has been a pretty emotional day as a fan and as someone who passes stuff along. Maybe Conroy knocks it out of the park, maybe Markstrom stays, maybe I will finally find out how they get the Caramilk inside the Caramilk bar. All I can put out there is what I hear but I have always said it is nothing concrete and everything should be taken with a grain of salt when it comes to these things. Looking back though I think I have done pretty decent for a guy who does not do trade rumours for a living and people have enjoyed talking about it which is the important part here.

You don't owe us anything and you didn't let anyone down!
You don't control the market or what Conroy can or will do.
Share your insights and leave it at that.
You aren't to blame for anyone else's out of whack expectations.
