[News] Bouwmeester admits Flames have approached him about trade

[PeteLFan]

Jaden Shwartz and a 1st from St.Louis would be awesome

[Muffins]

To boston for Koko, Bartkowski, and a conditional first?

[nik-]

We need to get a good deal for J-Bo, we need to. Retain salary if you have to, 1st and solid prospect is a must.

Why would Bouwmeester waive his NTC to go to a non playoff team?

[Robbob]

Kudos for the team acknowledging that things need to change and they need to change drastically.

[dammage79]

Are there players on these teams that Bouwmeester can fetch without a first attached?
Say Berglund, Ryan, Coutourier, Filppula and the likes. Like people are saying, you can't just offload eveyone for picks and prospects but maybe a bouwmeester trade can bring some proven NHL talent.

[Canada 02]

don't all trades go through Pittsburgh?

We don't want proven NHL talent, we want future NHL talent.

That they approached Iggy a month ago about the trade would seem to indicate that they've been moving that way internally for at least that long.

Iggy was the key log.

We can and we will!

For the last few weeks LeBrun has been saying St. Louis and Detroit are the ones going hardest after Bouwmeester.

[ComixZone]

Bob Mckenzie last night also said any potential return for Bouwmeester would be more significant than Iginla. So yeah, I'm excited.

This is me right now:



(...minus all the implications of murder and whatnot, of course.)

[Ozy_Flame]

This is literally the only asset we have left to help secure a young, top 6 centerman. Please don't screw this up, Feaster.

No kudos to this team - it was painfully obvious things needed to change 2 years ago and this franchise was too stupid/cowardly to do anything about it.

You don't get kudos for being dragged kicking and screaming into something that has been obvious for YEARS.

More like shame on the team for playing blind, deaf, and dumb to the plight of the organization.

[Tinordi]

Bouw for Tatar, Nyquist or Smith would be a great trade

I see you're back to #### talking this team at every turn....

[Kipper is King]

Turn on the afterburners for the rebuild!

Philly

The return for Bouw will be less than stellar, would be my guess.
