Description

Do not think we are getting much winning done with this group so time to move on.

Taking on Gudas / Ghost / Jarry is to make money work. Look for interest for JG at trade deadline.

Pitty does it cuz they need one last kick at the can with Crosby and co and goaltending did them in this playoffs.

Philly was a defensive disaster and Gio helps (legit top 4 if not top 2) even with aging. Taking Ghost pushes second rounder to 1st.

Florida has potential and is in win now mode (IMO). Adding Tkachuk to that group would be major to pair with Barkov or Huberdeau - have to pay for it though

I am aware of the unlikely nature of these scenarios. Especially happening at once and tried not to overvalue flames players with rose colored glasses. Fun though!

I am sure flames fans so no and other teams fans say no LOL

Markstrom most likely won't waive. We aren't trading Tkachuk unless we get a 1C. We wouldn't trade Markstrom unless we are rebuilding

This is exclusively in rebuild mode.

You have mentioned this on a few threads that you essentially want back the player you are trading (Tkachuk for first line Center). Can you please explain why that helps the team moving forward? If you want to get better in the future, you want future players hence one of florida's top forward prospects and two selections. I can see maybe getting a top center prospect though like Lundell but I would be confident he is 'untouchable' for Florida.

Philly passes hard on that. Philly doesn't need another LD and you aren't getting that big return for Giordano.

Flames just hired Sutter and signed him to a 3 year deal, they will not be rebuilding for at least a couple years.

It's not that big of a return since Ghost is basically a cap dump
