Description

So...this is unlikely but The Instigators radio show pitched the idea of karlson for skinner and it was interesting as maybe it would give dahlin a boost to have a legend as a partner. The Meier part is just me hoping to improve. There is a good chance skinner can add speed and scoring to san jose. And buffalo needs a few power forwards to accent thier skill players. Let me know if you think this team does any better next year and how much more im going to have to pay for the trades plz. Im trying not to take on anymore cap for the future as i have dahlin, reinhardt and others to sign next year.

Karlsson doesn't want to be in a rebuild, why would he waive to an even worse team... THATS ALREADY IN A REBUILD. One that has been happening for 10+ years now

Flames Accept and Run with this trade. Olofsson has a deadly 1 T and he is a pp scorer. #STOPVICTOROFOLSSONSLANDER
