Description
First of all I don't think ward is an nhl coach. This team is so inconsistent it doesn't make any sense. You would think after a complete 60 minute effort against the jets that you would see the reeling Canucks on the schedule for 4 straight and be licking your chops to stand on their necks while they're down. But they play 5 out of 6 absolutely awful periods that I've seen. This tells me you're not an elite or a contending team that has that killer instinct. You wouldn't see a team like Boston or Tampa do what the flames just did the past 2 games. Whether it be coaching, leadership or something else I don't know why this team is unable to find that next gear. They certainly have the talent but something is missing that those elite consistent teams have.

Think we need to entertain some trades for a couple of our core parts and do a rebuild on the fly. And I'm not blaming any of the players I'm proposing to trade, I just don't see us winning with them.

The only thing I don't like about this idea is that we have a binifide #1 goalie and I don't want to spoil his time here because he has been absolutely phenomenal.

Calgary constantly plays down to the level of their opponents. They simply chose not to show up at all tonight (besides Markstrom). I wpuld not be surprised if a beer league team could give them a run for their money simply because they choose to give the other team a chance. The effort tonight was hilarious

Montreal is NOT trading Danault. They will let him walk to FA if he does not resign. We will use him as our own rental before we trade him

Even if they do, I think CGY wld need to add to this trade to get him am I right? Sam Bennett is younger but hasn't proven to be anything more than a bottom 6 player..

Sabres fan here
At first glance, i was like “f*ck no!” Bc that pick could be top10
But Monahan is signed for 2 more years after this, AND you’re holding salary (that’s huge)
So even though i don’t “love” Monahan, I’d do that

A change of scenery could be just what Mitts needs too
He’s got all the talent in the world, so it certainly could be a trade we regret in a few years

Nice proposal imo

I don’t think you’re getting that much for Gaudreau though
