I am confident that won't happen. The market is very soft right now for trades and extensions are hard to do because it is hard to project value with the cap rising as much as it will in the next 5 years. I think the Flames are very comfortable with playing the slow play game with most of their upcoming UFA's. Right now you are getting pennies on the dollar, worst case scenario if you wait is you still get pennies on the dollar.

Yup I'll ignore him and you can keep getting excited over good for nothing gifs.

Maybe I'll post some too so you can double your excitement.

From what I remember reading no one has verified who Sec214 is or who his sources are so he could just be taking all of us on a ride posting a gif every 2-3 days with no relevant info. It's getting tiresome.

What if he’s Conroy and he doesn’t want to show his hand but keep the fans engaged

Conroy wouldn't post gifs. We all know he loves to talk. He would give us more than enough info.

Aaaand he would verify himself with the mods.

Almost seems like some just don't like others getting more attention then they do.

I'd rather read stuff that might be true than have nothing at all to read when it comes to potential team moves.

Yeah, I doubt this has anything to do with the city, the team, or the roster. Lindholm wants a big payday, and if he doesn’t think he’ll get the biggest payday from the Flames, he’ll look elsewhere. The Flames have tabled an offer, he wants them to go higher, and he’s waiting them out. He has all the leverage and he’s using it.

I think the problem is that there isn't a lot of actual information to read. It's more of a "I know something you don't know" never-ending tease.

I don't really care for the gifs so not a big deal to me but I can understand people who get excited over them get annoyed. Like bigpete said, what's the point teasing if nothing comes out of it in the end. Just seems like a lot of "misinformation".

Just teasing the thread like usual. At least dissentowner's posts have substance.

Lindholm has no trade protection on his contract, and would fetch a kings ransom at the deadline, probably a mid first + + given his contract value and position.

The only way this is possibly happening is if the Flames a firmly in a playoff race come January, and that point in time, I think we would be occupying a very different place in the hockey world than we currently assume we are occupying.

Don't rumors live in the rumors thread? did I miss the CP instruction manual? Care to share it?
