[Whyno] Fitzgerald ne mâche pas ses mots sur le marché des gardiens de but : « Il existe un marché. Les joueurs performants ont établi ce marché. Tout ce que j’essaie de faire, c’est d’être juste sur ce marché, mais il faut aussi une équipe qui veut conclure des accords équitables aussi. » , plutôt que de simplement vous extorquer pour chaque gros actif que vous possédez. »

How dare GMCC ask the world for a player he has zero reason to trade.
Clearly he should just give Marky up for future considerations, wanting compensation is just wrong.
/s
Fitz: Hey, Conny buddy! We want your Vezina-Caliber goalie
Conny: Err, no. We kinda still need a starting goalie and he has an NMC
Fitz: Bro we really need a starting goalie and your team sucks anyway, just give him to us.
Conny: Listen, I told you we’re not trading him. Alright *maybe* we can ask him if he’s ok to waive his NMC for you if you make it worth our while.
Fitz: *Shows offer*
Conny: Looks kinda decent I guess, lemme ask him.
*5 minutes later*
Conny: Hey Fitz, great news. He said he’s ok going to you guys. Alright get the paperworks ready!
Fitz: Awesome bro, also I forgot to mention I need you to retain 50% so it’ll work for our cap situation.
Conny: HEY WTF, that’s not what we agreed on. He’s already on a reasonable contract for 2 more seasons, that’ll cost you another pick or prospect.
Fitz: Nah, fuck you you price gouging asshole.
Marky compared to Allen is quite a difference.

I dont blame him for not wanting to give up Mercer, Holtz + a 1st for marky. that return is absolutely ridiculous. but we were in no real rush to make a trade. either you crazily overpay, or you dont get anything. Fitz is kinda coming off as entitled here.
Hahahahaha what a whiny desperate bitch.
I’m 100% sure he’s going to circle back again when Allen and Kaakhonen don’t fare much better
Yeah, I don’t think you get to moan about the ask if you are the one that knocked on the Flames door, asked for their under-contract-no-move-having number 1 goalie that they weren’t shopping in the first place, then asked for them to retain.
Fucking right the ask was steep.
I’m glad Conny held off.
Not against trading him, but anything less than Mercer + 1st + 2nd given our bargaining position wasn’t enough. We can extract a lot of value from Marky till the end of his contract. I just hope him being « upset » is typical media just blowing up an offhand comment and not something that will cause issues later.
Thinks he can take advantage of a new gm by sliding in the retention part after the fact.
New gm doesn’t fall for it.
Frowny face
Ive read this was more about them inquiring on Saros. isn’t the report there was a trade in place. Markstrom agreed to the move but it was Flames president and ownership that nixed it?
The asking price just went up for these fucking jokers.
NJ didn’t have enough Russian prospects to offer in return.
I would’ve thought a lot of people in this sub would agree with Fitz, just based on the number of posts today whinning about why Markstrom wasn’t traded
Noooooooooooo you guuuyyyyysssss
Stank Vermicelli told me it was all the mean, nasty flames ownership.
That tub of fuck is like an anti flames sleeper cell, I swear.
New Jersey when they realize they have to give up assets to get a good player: 😱
I wonder what the offer was.
it would be an offseason move, however if Marky is to move on it automatically becomes a long term full on rebuild, I like Wolfe but we are talking one of the top goalies in the league to a prospect.
Lol enjoy another wasted season of sub .900 goaltending pal
Blah blah blah, pay up or shut up.
