Description
I really liked the idea that jslongo had for Faulk if contract negotiations are going nowhere with the Faulk camp. Instead of overcomplicating the details, how about a straight-up swap with a pick coming the Canes' way in exchange for retained salary? Frees up space for the Flames to re-sign Tkachuk, and IMO doesn't impact our ability to sign Williams or our other RFAs.

I really like this idea. If we can get TJ Brodie to resign I'd be really okay with this

I actually think that Brodie doesn't even need to be re-signed for this to be a good swap in the Canes' favor. Because of the league-wide RFA nightmare and the Canes having Aho completely locked up, they can once again take advantage of a team's cap situation and squeeze another Day 2 lottery ticket out of it.

An interesting idea from the Calgary perspective assuming both guys don't have these respective teams on their NTC's. We need the cap savings this year, but there is risk in the fit. Gio + Brodie has had Gio in the Norris conversation (and a win this year) each of the two full seasons they played together. With Gio + Faulk, who knows how the fit will be. There is also risk for both teams in trying to retain these guys. I feel like that risk is greater for Calgary as US players typically prefer to play in the states once they get to UFA, and Faulk would be going from a market where he isn't under the microscope to one were he would be.

There is a lot of former Canes infrastructure in your organization, though, and vice-versa. Lindholm, Hanifin, Derek Ryan, and Bill Peters are all with you guys. If there's any Canadian team that Faulk would be comfortable enough with in re-signing, it's likely the Flames. The Canes' risk IMO is mitigated by the 3rd round pick, so even if they treat Brodie as an own-rental, they will still get a total of 11 picks in a reportedly loaded draft.

Andersson did too. Brodie has benefited from gio far more than the other way around. Andersson will be in the top pair.

Gio does make everyone better, but I think Brodie is a better fit with him than a lot of other defenders. I mean Hamilton is a great d-man, and didn't help elevate Gio's game the same way Brodie does. Brodie also carried a pairing with Engelland a few years ago when Gio went down with his injury so he's no slouch either. He get's a lot of hate for his occasional brain farts, but he is a very good defenseman.

I agree this year Peters has the luxury of keeping Gio + Brodie together at home, and using Brodie down the lineup to balance the pairs on the road by bringing Andersson up with Gio. I think that is less likely given Valimaki's injury as they probably start with what worked last year in a Kylington - Andersson all Swede bottom pairing.

As nicely as I can say it... Brodie needs to leave. They will probably keep him on this year as an owned rental but he should not be re signed. Probably should have been moved earlier for an rhd prospect but with Valimaki’s injury they are kind of luck they didn’t.

I think that's probably true that this is his last year as a Flame, but I don't think that's because he is a bad player, it's because Andersson seems to have taken a big step forward and they will not be able to afford TJ's contract demands which are probably close to Cam Fowler's $6.5M (Fowler v. Brodie).

That was as nicely as I could say it. My real feelings... Brodie is trash. He is a liability. Much like gardiner he has too many brain farts.
