I want to believe that Conny remains active in trying to solve some roster issues. But I feel like I'm hoping against my better judgment at this point.
Historically aside from the Lucic trade, I cant think of any other major trade that the Flames have completed in the middle of the summer. It's just not something we really ever see often if at all.
It feels like the market quickly bottomed out on a Ras trade. Essentially its forced Conny to sit back and let other GM's initiate discussions to try and maintain some leverage. It just doesn't sound or feel like we have any motivated buyers out there aside from Dallas at this time. If thats the case, maybe the deadline would be a better option. We need a frenzied market if we want the return that everyone around here dreams of.
