My sense is he might need more AHL time which he's willing to do.

I would laugh so hard if Foo signed with the Flames. Not because I think he'd be a great addition to the team, but because of the sheer arrogance of the assclowns up in Shelbyville. Get a load of this Foo highlight package, and who it is attributed to.



The kid hasn't even signed yet and they are already touting him as one of their prospects. Again, the sheer arrogance of those clowns makes it so easy to hate them and their ilk.

Every unsigned player is an Oilers prospect to them. They're such a horrible fan base.

On the other board it is pretty common to see his name pencilled into the Oilers starting lineup, and always without any discussion of his contract status.

Oilers would by lying to his face if they say he will play with McDavid, they are gonna give Pool party every chance to take that position. He has a much better chance on playing with the Flames next year, we have the top line and Bennett's line that he could play on, you got to think him being at development camp last year will help signing him as well. His highlights look good but he would definitely be a mystery box.

The Flames unloading picks and boasting the best D corps in the league should help in their favor for landing Foo

Never heard of this guy, but he's 2 letters off my name. I keep thinking the Flames are looking to sigh me.

The answer is yes, by the way.

Well the Flames did play a lot of their prospects over vets in Stockton. I can't confirm what Grand Rapids have been doing, but Detroit has a history of good development with their prospects.

Looking at both organizations, the Flames are congested in the forward position. However, if Treliving were to trade Bouma, Chiasson and Stajan, it doesn't look too bad

Joshua Marshall‏ @JMarshyBosco93









.@NHLFlames are set to sign Free Agent Spencer Foo sometime this coming week, source close to the family says the #Flames are the team.

Not sure who this guy is, but take it for what it is worth. Says he is the head alberta scout for the Surrey Eagles on his twitter.

Reeeeeeeeeeeeeely hoping this is true as well:

Also hearing that the @EdmontonOilers & Dennis Wideman's camp have opened up talks on a 1 year deal. #Oilers

From the same Joshua Marshall

It's worth nothing. This guy also claimed his "sources" confirmed a trade of Bennett and a 1st for Hamonic and the Oilers were signing Russell @ 4.5M with a NMC. His next tweet says the Oilers are looking to sign Wideman. He's just trying to cause uproar in both fanbases.

Wait a minute. This is the same guy that reported this:

Joshua Marshall‏ @JMarshyBosco93 Jun 22
.@NHLFlames are closing in on @NYIslanders D Travis Hamonic from what I'm told. Sounds like a 1st round pick & Sam Bennett are the pieces...

and this:

Joshua Marshall‏ @JMarshyBosco93 3h3 hours ago
Also hearing that the @EdmontonOilers & Dennis Wideman's camp have opened up talks on a 1 year deal. #Oilers

and this:

Joshua Marshall‏ @JMarshyBosco93 Jun 22
Kris Russell is set to re-signs with the @EdmontonOilers in the next 24-48 hours. 4 years/$18M with a full NMC is what I'm told. #Oilers

I'd be cautious about this source.

As much as I want this to be true this guy doesn't seem reliable. I only trust news reports on here posted by sureloss.
