Hmm?

Ah interesting. Well he would certainly help them and fit a much needed hope in their lineup.

Too bad wings won't have the cap to chase him.

Highest salaried team. Worst record. Woot. Go wings. Golden years.

Maybe we can suck and land Evgeni Schvenikovs brother Andrei though. Russian sedin twins

pffff that's absolutely nothing. I understand the reason for the rule but I thought it was something a lot juicier than the owner saying "we have pursued Tavares" at a golf tourney ._.

I think Tavares is gone by the end of this season anyways (or he walks in FA, which is possible because Garth Snow is a moron)



Lots of room on the Flames wagon, get your seat early

I'm sure many other teams "had discussions" between owner and GM

They didn't say they spoke with NYI nor Tavares

None dumb enough to put it in the media. I can see why it would be an issue for the Islanders.

Team has rights to the player and wishes to extend the contract, now some other team puts it in his head that they're interested and gives him another option. It's like starting the free agent discussion period 9 months early.

Do you think Tavares needs teams going in the media to show interest in him? He knows if he goes UFA he is the top dog.

Also we don't the context.. possibly the journalist specifically asked if Montreal thought about Tavares.

Note he said they "had discussions about acquiring him" and did not confirm they had any interest in him after the discussion.

Ye but its still tampering lol
Its funny cos bergevin gave benning shit when he accidently spilled the beans to nucks radio fans for wanting to talk to pk subban when fa hits 2 days later. Now he does the same shit

Flames won't have an arena anyway

didn't benning say he had trades talks with habs for subban? making it known to public subban was on the market?

this doesn't seem to be no where near the same thing
