Conroy said he wanted to be on this road trip to watch the Beanpot tournament and do some scouting. So consistent with him being out there

The game is going to be weird tomorrow. Maybe instead, both teams just line up on the bluelines and start exchanging jerseys

Fair. Though there's Rob Blake, Jeff Carter, Ron Francis, Gaborik, Goring.

Aren't the Flames closer to a playoff spot than the Devils...who are we buying from them?

One in 16 chance.

The fair way to look at it would be to track which teams make acquisitions, and which teams don't. And see how many Cup winners come from each group.

Devils are 1 game back of 3rd, and a game and a half back of 8th

Flames are 2 games back of 8th

Devils are 5 points out with 2 games in hand. And the team they are chasing is Detroit. Plus they have been without Hughes for weeks and will get him back at some point.

Calgary is 3 points out with one game extra and chasing St. Louis. And are shedding big players.

But moreover, I think Devils like their team over the next 3 years more than Calgary likes theirs, so if they are after Hanifin, it's with a contract either in place or agreed to with him.

Please don't deal Markstrom. Vladar is the one to be moved. Let Wolf mentor under Markstrom for a couple years so you don't throw the weight of the franchise on him too soon.

...and the Flames as cellar dwellers with an AHL team to ice.

But boy oh boy, all of those picks will be homeruns because that's how this all works!

I'd be happy to keep Markstrom as a mentor for Wolf, but if he's headed for LA, they do have a slightly disgruntled Kaliyev, and a Turcotte buried on the third and fourth line.

This is Craig Conroy we are talking about...when the Flames shed players they get better plus assets.

Sergachev appears to have sustained a season ending injury tonight.

So trading Hanifin is good.

I was thinking J-A-D. But the Flames are gonna need defensemen too. So I'd sniff around there as well.
