It is mindless to keep playing the players if there are trades for them on the table. Better product on home ice is just about the most depressing thing I have heard in a while.

I really doubt they’d play them if they had deals they liked on the table unless Coleman and Kadri wouldn’t waive without one more home game or something dumb

People are whining about playing guys when a deal hasn't been made. Some folks just think Conroy can invent trades. His price clearly hasn't been met.

Yeah they probably don't want to do anything to piss him off with the bid presentation today too. That would be a huge get for the city and franchise.

Great goaltending isn’t saving the Rangers or Jets.
I think Wolf blocking this team from bottoming out is overstated.
This biggest thing that’s prevented the Flames from bottoming out IMO is being a well coached team with hard working players that are bought in, playing a very structured defensive system. There are enough veterans to give them a fighter’s chance most nights.
Remove a couple of leaders in that room I think gravity will prevail.

I wonder if the Oilers try to take a swing at Binnington somehow.

The trick, then, must be removing the veterans.

By a swing do you mean begging and pleading?
Thought it was rumored that Binnington wasn't interested.

Nah you've gotta impress Bettman by playing your trade chips and still getting smoked by a contender.

This ain’t true. Sharangovich has been scratched a few times this season (as an example).
Not sure why you need to make things up

St Louis aren't doing the deal for a couple of thirds, Oilers have nothing unless they're dumb enough to trade one of their functional roster players.

Well we gave Bettman a billion dollar investment and now a 15 million dollar bid, so he kind of owes us now.

Don't know what's dumber, that theory or needing to ice a "good product" at home. This is a rebuild, no one is going to the Dome expecting a contest if Dallas actually show up, as they have.

Haha if I am going to a Flames game this year, I am expecting most likely a boring game and a loss. Fans know what the team is at this point.
