Inflated Markstrom price.
Markstrom clearly does not want to remain in Calgary. Flames had agreed to a trade, asked him to waived, he agreed to waive for NJ, team even asked him to inform locker room that he had been dealt…then ownership tried to shake down Devils for more assets. Markstrom ripped Conroy in media…and even by end of season, was ice cold towards him.
After season, Fitzy was still bitter about the amateur hour s**tshow in Calgary, even called it ‘extortion’. It would be very hard to see these two teams come together for any trade. If Markstrom wants out, but is only waiving for NJD, return will be tiny (he did use his NTC elsewhere).
