Gotta say, think I would rather have Johnny Hockey.

I argue that Calgary's big issue is the lacknof real secondary scroing. That first line is fantastic. But it's hard to look fantastic when, without question, youbare consistently facing the oppositions toughest defensive comepition. I love Backlund, but I would sooner his line off the hook than the Monahan unit.

The flames won't pay to offload the lucic contract

You don't think they would, if the ancillary benefit was being able to sign Taylor Hall?

In essence, in this imaginative construction, Calgary's first selection in the 2020 draft, from the Windsor Spitfires, . . .

The Flames management really likes Lucic, I think he has this year yet before a buyout is considered.

Do we really want to get rid of Lucic though? Management and fans alike are happy with him, and in order to get Hall you will Probably need to pay closer to 10 or 11 million, hes going to have lots of buyers.
