What value is there in telling the media that you don't want to move any of these guys. It really does feel like Edwards doesn't want to punt on this season, and would rather actually make this take even longer to become good again.
Moving Kadri and Coleman now for a premium will accelerate the rebuild, not make it take longer.

We'd have to believe a lot of assumingly intelligent individuals either haven't or can't run a simple model or look at history in making decisions to believe all the media reports.
That's why it's posturing.
Hell it might even be trolling at this point.
Someone at 555 Saddledome Rise can ..
1) Do simple math on the chances of making the playoffs
2) Do a google search on the length of the average rebuild
3) Add those average rebuild years to the age on every player on the team
4) Determine who will be here when the rebuild is done
I honestly can't a) believe and b) understand why people lean into these tertiary media tidbits and overreact.
Go with the facts. Cap space unused. Nobody acquired at the last deadline. Nobody added in the summer. UFAs moved.
