Same #### happened when conroy and Vancouver made the deal with lindholm. Just Pat didn’t get pissy.

Damn Murray Edwards strikes again!

Okay, Fitz will come back. I'm 100 percent convinced now that Marky is a Devil by the end of the week.

Agree.

Conroy has presented he’s plan to Murray in December. Everything was approved including retention.

Thanks for the info Sec, much appreciated.

That’s so unprofessional of Fitz if that’s the case. Absolutely ridiculous if so. Conroy is not desperate to sell Markstrom and it’s his prerogative to keep his options open during any trade negotiations.

Lmao, Fitz will come back around if thats the case. Let him cool off, their season is on the line.

Thanks Sec. That's amazing info. NJ can pound sand in that case. We're 100% in the right to give all teams a fair chance at making a deal. NJ will be back in a week when they get over their hissy fit.

[ComixZone]

Thanks Sec!

[Mr.Coffee]

Ya, sounds like Fitz can get over that one. It’s business and negotiations, if you’re worried about it offer more or make your offer timeline conditional.

[Muta]

I f'ing love that Connie wanted to explore his options and Fitz had a meltdown and this trade fell through. Connie is the belle of the ball! Dude is playing the field, haters gonna hate.

[Burning Beard]

GM Conroy is making me like him just as much as player Conroy.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Make them pay extra for throwing a fit and making this leak.

[Nelson]

So, I’d say that can be fixed. Give Fitzpatrick time to cool down, and the Flames can go back to him and say you still have the best offer. Want him? (Or someone else may present a better offer?)

Amen, a few years ago I helped my cousin for the day to do a delivery 470k in furniture lol. The couch was 85k A table was 65k and so on

Spent hours there doing a perfect job going above and beyond. The dude was breathing over us the whole time. Treating us like trash and being condescending af like we were some dumb peasants of his and whoever he was talking to on the phone at one point... he was being so rude to it blew my mind. I could go on and on but damn, prick is right. I was 16 and thought it was gonna be cool to meet the dude and visit a massive mansion, nah, that was rough. Did a lot of extra work for him for free.

Almost 500k delivery, hours of work, extra time to help him out, being talked down to and hawkeyed. Zero tips lol. That #### left an imprint I'll never forget.

Good, I am glad that Conroy is doing his due diligence and isn't being pushed around. Fitz must think other teams can or will make better offers. I don't see anything wrong with the approach. Call the other teams that showed interest and tell them it's show time. Put your final offer on the table because it's happening today.

The only reason he would have to be pissed off is if Conroy said:

"I want this this and that"

And TF agreed to all of it.

Then without any changes to that agreement. Conroy reneged on it.....which is super doubtful at best.

One thing to consider is, would Markstrom waive for the other suitors? We don't know.

Yeah. Who knows? I like Carolina and Los Angeles though. Maybe he would too?

[RedHawk12]

One question though: why did we approach Markstrom to waive for NJ if we were going to give other teams to outbid? What happens if one of them does actually beat the NJ offer? Do we just tell Markstrom never mind about NJ and ask if he will waive to go to the other team? Or do you think Markstrom has already waived for a number of teams?
