I would expect there are about 28 teams interested in Glencross. The Flames already have him, and the Oilers are probably still chasing Jagr.

Well, when Glencross was asked after the Iginla trade whether or not he was asked to waive his NTC, he said no and that he wouldn't waive it even if they did ask.

I doubt too much has changed this season.

Personally I would not want to trade Glen X at all... He's a heart and soul kind of guy.. reminds me of Ferrence in a lot ways who I wish we kept as well. Glencross is Calgary Flames Hockey.

I'd move him if the return is right and since the Flyers appear to be in meltdown mode already I'm sure it would be. We'd have to take back salary though.

Horrible, lazy play by Glencross last night

He's got good value for his cap hit so I'd trade him to Philly if te return was good

He is? He hasn't been playing with a lot of heart or soul so far this season. Personally, he reminds of how "Calgary Flames Hockey" used to be... inconsistent (and sometimes downright lazy) effort, bonehead plays, interrupted with random bursts of skill.

There's a reason he wasn't made captain.

Probably could have kept this in the trade speculation thread IMO. But I will bite

Glennie, Butler and Sven for the Schenns and a 4th

I'm so glad our management don't make decisions based on one play or such small sample sizes.

I never said I'd trade him based on that one play.

With that being said, that one play is a perfect example of how he plays when he doesn't feel like competing. Which isn't rare

The guy has been inconsistent his whole career. He has the skills, and he scores his goals, but they are always accompanied by bouts of selfishness, invisibility and dumb penalties. He's a decent piece, but I don't think he's a guy who any young kid should be looking up to as some sort of heart and soul leader.

I would help run Feaster out of town if he did that.

Not surprising but I am sure we also have interest in Giroux.

Send Glencross to Philly for Meszaros! We eat salary but it works to get a Dman!
