What Conroy did with Fitz, I've done many times on Facebook Marketplace selling furniture to people lol... 'great offer, gonna check around and see if anyone can beat it". Usually always works, someone more desperate gives you slightly better.

Go Connie! SOW CHAOS

That's been a niggle in my mind. Maybe Connie should have just bucked up and sent it. You got what you wanted. Maybe he overplayed his hand.

Hopefully NJ comes back.

Can’t see Markstrom staying a Flame at this point.

Also curious who is leaking such specific details. It’s not the agent it seems. Per Friedman’s first report, Markstrom hadn’t been approached yet.

I know everyone is saying why would Jacob waive his NMC but then renegotiate with other teams. Conroy would have a list of teams Jacob would consider moving to from his representatives. The pen to paper thing is all a formality at this point.

Lots of touch points when players get traded/signed in the NHL. Immigration Lawyers, Accountants, Player Reps, League Reps. List goes on and on…

So high chance Markstrom gets traded you think?

Do you have an idea on if it was Markstorm + Tanev/Hanifin or what the return from NJ was?

Calgary has a conditional 1st offer from a Western Conference team for Tanev, I’ve heard Conroy can get that to a first. He has as many as 8 teams interested.

Same #### happened when conroy and Vancouver made the deal with lindholm. Just Pat didn’t get pissy.
Did your source know what the pieces from NJ were?

Just relieved Conroy isn't acting 100% lone wolf here.

Trading Markstrom is the right move for the franchise so hopefully they can get it to work. It can’t be easy but it’s heartening to hear the strategic direction matches what I personally believe they need to do.

That’s because he’s worth a 1st. Good stuff.

It was a Roster Player, 1st Rounder (Unsure if it’s 24 or 25), Prospect and additional 2nd for Retention.

Noah has as many as 4 contenders interested in a deal with extension and one team as a rental (Tampa).

Fitz probably told Conroy, “You pulled that kyt on Alvin, but you’re not going to pull it on me. If you’re not prepared to accept the offer we agreed on right now, you can go f@€# yourself”.
