Thats a good point. Unless youre over paying for shorter term, then its just rediculous.
At that point, pursue MAF and ride him for 3 years until Gillies or McDonald are ready.

With Calgary being the only team looking for a goalie right now, I think Reimer will not get offers that high. If Flames do get him at the 3 M per year, they can consider 1A and 1B tandems.

Maybe just give Sureloss his own thread that nobody can add to?

This.
Tired of wading through people's "speculation" and debates for any actual tweets.

We are all okay with it but people need to avoid posting anything other than tweets or articles.
The "flames coaching news" thread quickly turned into the exact same thing with people posting hopes and opinions over actual news

Turns out Treliving and Conroy were just playing some chess. Treliving was debating if he should take Conroy's Bishop or Rook, opted to take the Rook.
Nothing to see here.

You might be in the wrong place then my friend. You're looking for Twitter, not a discussion board.

The situation was always going to play out this weekend one way or another.

I think we all assumed that something would happen tomorrow but after hearing the asking price for Fleury and knowing a Bishop will cost even more, I'm not sure this gets done right away.

I bet whoever trades their goalie to CGY will sign Reiner first. So I think you are right.

News Update
Dreger says on Insider Trading Bishop looks to be primary target for Flames.
McKenzie says there is a sense the Flames may have been given permission to talk to Bishop - but they don't know for sure.
If the next contract is too expensive they may move on to guys like Elliott

Oh snap, if Calgary has been given permission to speak with him, that changes things dramatically.

Absolutely.
Bishop scared me because I assumed we would be trying to sign him all year and it'd be impossible to keep him beyond the season. If we can have an extension in place before the trade suddenly he might be the ideal goalie.
Will cost an arm and leg though...

Sounds like it would be a sign and trade if it happens. Hope we aren't giving up our 1st.

Treliving said he won't give up our first rounder for a goaltender.

They'd have to talk to him. Gauge his interest in playing for the Flames long term and what kind of contract extension he might be looking for.
Can't give up assets for one year of him. They'd get an extension signed ASAP after July 1st.

I believe he said he doesn't want to. He didn't explicitly rule it out.
