It tells me that they're probably resigned to losing Shatty in the off-season.

Remarkably the Flames got more in return for Bou than they did for Iginla. As a Flames fan I like this trade. Get rid of a huge salary for 2 decent prospects and a first rounder. Calgary now sitting on 3 first round picks (as long as the Blues make the playoffs). Time to blow this team up and get young.
