I'm not gonna lie. I am EXTREMELY interested to see who the new GM will "consider worth moving" and what types he'll prioritize acquiring - with input from the surviving coach, no doubt. I would love to get into a bone picking* session with the Flames if certain guys suddenly become expendable.

Triveling should have fired him a while back and saved himself the trouble.

* = the predator tearing off raw meat kind, not the angry complaining kind


Here's my guess

I feel one or two of Backlund, Lindholm, Hanafin, and Mangiapane wont be a Flame this summer

If Kylington comes back got a feeling Hanafin's probs gone and one of the 2 C's not named Kadri if they do not agree to an extension (Probs Backlund)

No. Seven game series...... but we skip the regulation and overtime and only play shootouts


Even better, then absolutely no-one comes home happy

He was the #1 overall pick and was elite at 5v5 in his rookie season. It’s a good bet. Locks him up for his entire prime before the cap skyrockets.’

Which prospect would you rather have: Ryan Leonard or Oliver Moore? Both seem pretty intriguing picks for the 8-15 range. Both 5’11 Centermen with good skating and shot

Ryan Leonard is more of a winger

He is listed as both. Haven’t watched enough video of him to make a conclusive decision

I honestly prefer Leonard.

Moore is an excellent skater, and supports his teammates well, but honestly he doesn't really use to his speed to create the offense he could. I think Leonard does a little bit of everything and I think his playstyle is better fitted for what he does well.
