Episode Date: November 7, 2025

Boomer and Rhett are joined by TSN’s Darren Dreger, who reported on Insider Trading that Flames owner Murray Edwards has no interest in trading Nazem Kadri — in fact, he doesn’t want to move him at all and still loves the core of this team. The guys react to that report and tell Dreger why that news is frustrating for many Flames fans who are desperate for change. How long will Calgary stick with this core before something finally gives??Video Link: https://youtu.be/U3J1-AhjyyE#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #calgaryflames CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️FLAMESNATION MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8📲 Follow us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fnbarnburner/X (Twitter): https://x.com/barnburnerfn?lang=en🎧 Listen on:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/be/podcast/barn-burner-boomer-pinder-with-rhett-warrener/id1648562889Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Mc6Qd5U22R2zbMlQ7RxIiProducer: Jack Haverstock Hosted on Acast.

You're sitting out there in your big palatial estate. You don't drive into the city anymore because you're a big deal. You don't have to do that kind of stuff. I don't. I'm just kind of a sitter. You know what I'm going to do? I'm going to enrage an entire NHL team fan base today. Now, why is that?

And I haven't looked at social media, so I don't know what the comments of the feedback is. But why is the fan base enraged? Enlighten me here. Well, I'm just going to, again, I just, we've started the show. show it's already a fraud. Dregger doesn't know he's talking about. Yeah. Dregor something to go. No, it's not so much that.

It's, uh, we need Marie Edwards to sell the team. This team's never going to tell Edwards is out. You know what? Just move the team. Just get them out. I can't handle any more of this. Uh, you, you went on your insiders thing there on the TSN and you're like, yeah, stuck in a Murray.

words well you're not you'd say it that way but if you're expecting a nosom cadre deal i'd maybe pump the brakes because murray words loves the core of this team this is what loves the core of this team no trades believes in this team and people have lost their shit because they finally believe they believe that for once this team is not going to give you that well maybe uh you know they're within four points. Well, trade deadline. Nah, they can't trade. Maybe that whole shit stuff that happens every year. Right. No, they're last in the league.

Finally, everyone can look and not be confused. And then they hear you. Well, in fairness, in fairness, I was specific to Nazim Khadry. Now, I did say that he likes the core. I did say that. I did say that. So I'm not going to retract that. And what I reported was that ownership has told people that they're not interested in trading Nazim Qadry. They're not trading Nazim Qadry. But we're having this conversation, what is it, 7th of November?

So I said that, you're right, on television, November 6, 2025. Let the record indicate. Now there's some caveats to this. owners, managers, coaches, and players can change their mind. You know, look, it's a shock to know one that Nazim Kodry and his family love Calgary, right? He loves playing for the flames. He wants to win with the Calgary Flames. And that's, you know, before the 1000th game celebration this week, that's current status of Nazim

Cadrary. But if this team flounders and you get closer to the trade. deadline. Who's to say Nas, where he's at in his career, doesn't go, hmm, this is a tough

spot. And I don't, I don't want to be part of a renovation if you're using an R word, right? I just don't have enough runway left here. And I want to win. I want to win. And so there is opportunity for some minds to change.

Maybe that's the owner's mind that changes. Maybe his mind is changed by Craig Conroy and the management group and there's lots of voices as you guys know in that process. Maybe it's Cadrick. We don't know. But when I talk about the core, I think we also have to be mindful here, guys. What are we talking about? I mean, from the outside looking in, I would include Rasmus Anderson in that core. But Murray Edwards' ownership, these aren't dumb dumbs. I mean, they're looking at contractual situations. If you can't get a deal done, which it doesn't look like it's going to happen with Anderson, well, of course, that's a

trade piece. That's a trade piece. So that core maybe isn't as large as some of the fan base is looking at. Yeah. And of course, I'm having some fun with you. The other thing is, too, that, yes, it is November 7th. Now, I'm not a shrewd negotiator. You sure aren't, Dean. I have never done well for myself in any capacity when it comes to contracts or negotiating. But I do know this. If I had it, if I had an asset or if I had something that someone else deemed desirable, I would not come out and I would probably try and steer away from. Well, we're in a bad spot. I mean, we'd probably just take about, we'd take anything. Whatever he'd do. Yeah. I'd, you know, pennies on the dollar. No, I would try. We're not, I'm, I have, why would anybody? I love that. It's a very, very

important to me. There's different layers to it. Right. Craig Conroy, it's, oh, no, we're looking to improve. Well, you want to send the message to your dressing room that you're trying to find help, that you're not just sitting on your hands doing nothing. Oh, no. There's a player on the market.

No, we love him. I would take something pretty special. But no, we're not really. There are some games that are played as well. Yeah, to a degree. But I think we also have to be careful here. Let's look through a lens of ownership. And it's different than management or anyone else involved in the organization.

Because Edwards and company are looking at the new building coming and probably have done their due diligence. I think we've talked about the whole Detroit remodel rebuild, right? And, you know, I'm reminded of the conversation I had with Mark Chipman and the Winnipeg Jets. And before they extended Shifle and Halebuck, he did that research. And he talked to, you know, other owners. high-level executives with clubs who have been through the dark of going through a full rebuild and recognized in Winnipeg it just wasn't going to fly. You can't go through a seven-year, eight-year, nine-year rebuild.

You know, now you look at the Detroit Red Wings and Eisenman and company, you're doing the McMahon strut because everything is clicking. But it took a decade to get there. And can Calgary sustain something like that? probably not probably not so yeah i mean the owner is grasping on the pieces that he knows they're going to keep his organization competitive and a guy like nassim cadra keeps it competitive and he's under contract so why wouldn't you want to hold on tight and make sure and it's not like he did this in a public forum right he's probably someone annoyed that a guy like me found out about it to be fair

but that's just the way the business says i i understand the angst from a fan-based perspective, but I don't think there's anything wrong with the position of Murray Edwards or anyone else there.
