thinks Dallas and Toronto is around there

there might still be other teams in the mix
Time is a flat circle.

I appreciate you posting the updates though.

So Boston has a decent offer on the table. Andersson will decide tonight if he pulls the trigger. See what tomorrow brings

So if he won't sign in Boston it sounds like we're not getting a great package

I do wonder what Andersson thinks of Boston… I don’t think the flames would have taken negotiations this far with Boston without knowing if Andersson would consider signing with them. Hopefully they can get this across the line.

The positive takeaway with Boston is that there appears to be good faith negotiation between the two parties on extension.

If Boston thought Andersson's demands were too much or if Andersson didn't want to consider Boston's offer, the Flames would probably moved on to another team.

Trust CC
But the Flames can't do pro scouting! We know this because they thought Gary Leeman was worth Doug Gilmour in a trade in 1992, and they have done everything in exactly the same stupid way for the last 35 years. Mushy middle! Rebiggle! Rabble rabble!

I was going to say that there's unlikely to be a trade tonight except EF has already said that and it's not news.

I would - HOWEVER - be surprised if there is not a trade tomorrow.

A real fan can agonize about two things at once. I believe it's called multikvetching.

I can't wait for the civil war between those who think they should trade Coleman and those who think they should trade Kadri.

Yeah I wouldn't be surprised if there was a bunch of noise again tonight after the Bruins game finishes and then it becomes official tomorrow

If Conroy is calling around for best offers then I would think Andersson is probably going as a rental? Who knows anymore.

Hahaha. Yep, but If there is a market for players of their age you jump on it.

Andersson and his agent are negotiating a deal with Boston to see if they can get something done.

He's arrived yesterday late afternoon. Had a game to play today. Give the guy some time to think about where he's going to play and live for the next 6-8 years of his life. I'm not surprised that it's taking some time.

He may not even end up signing with Boston. It's not a guarantee.

Or this is going to be another Cammaleri no trade due to offers too low! I sure hope not!

Is CC allowed to put a “In-season signing condition” in each of these packages to prevent teams from trading as a rental with intents to sign at a later point

If so, this might be that be the glue that holds this all together and is keeping Boston honest
