It kind of ticks me off a little that the Flames didn't ask the league to look into tampering once that was reported. I get that soft tampering happens once in a while, but it is typically indirect like it gets leaked by the media accidentally on purpose that a team might be interested in a player. And I am sure sometimes players talk to each other occasionally on behalf of managers. But to just put a salary and term on it seems like a step too far and can just break a team's ability to negotiate with their own player with another team in their ear giving exact details of a deal.
The league did recently say that they are going to get more serious about it, but I have my doubts anything comes out of it.
