Yeah. It would have to happen now for it to make sense.

No 1st round picks and no player better than Joe Colborne involved and I am on board...
(and none of our swedish D prospects either please)

2nd round pick (35OA) & Poirier would likely be enough to get this done. Tampa won't want to take any salary back and they get (potentially) two decent prospects.

If the #Lightning are going to make a bold move at the draft coming away w/ Toronto's #1 pick would soften the blow of losing Steven Stamkos
Could he have meant #30 for his rights?

I don't know. Ryan Miller returned a pretty heft price for the Sabres as a rental.

I disagree. As sureloss said Miller returned a lot and he was a Rental. Bishop has a year left and was just nominated for the Vezina. He won't be cheap.

By a team desperate for the missing piece to go deep into the playoffs.

And it was proven to be a huge mistake by the Blues.

Tampa fans on twitter want Gaudreau, Monahan, Hamilton, Bennett, and (not or) picks for Bishop.

Looks like this guy is using Bob McKenzies tweet to stir up some free clicks down in FLA. We will see though.

This makes me very nervous. High cost, high risk, and for what may just be a one-year rental. Far prefer a deal for Fleury.

But that opinion shows how out of touch from reality he is.

Completely relevant to challenge the notion of him being a reputable source. He's not.

Even if the leak didn't come from the Flames, this has to work in their favor when it comes to negotiations with Rutherford.

'We want a first!'
'Fine, I'm off to chat with Yzerman'.
'...okokok, I am just kidding. #54 is just fine!'.

Woo! Anyone but MAF. I get that some of you love the guy but I don't see it. Somehow our need for a goalie has blinded everyone to Flower's career long reputation as a choker. Pass, thanks.

I also think the worries about Bishop's equipment change are wildly overblown. Plus, news on a Tuesday morning! How excite.

Joe Smith @TBTimes_JSmith
While there will be interest in Ben Bishop, if #tblightning makes available, he has partial NM clause. His camp says all "quiet" so far

Tampa fans are in a position to demand nothing, the Flames are also in a position to grant nothing.

Anything more then a 2nd round pick and or a cap dump is terrible.

We've confirmed with sources that the "reports out of Canada" are actually Gord and Gord who hang out at the Tim Hortons in Moose Jaw.
