I mean he performed better in Calgary than in Montreal


Well if he was traded now he'd have 1 year left. When he was traded to Montreal he had 2.5 left.
So it equals it out.

So it makes perfect sense that Flames fans are asking for what they traded to get him

Team name being the "Flames" is very convenient

Lindholm and Hanifin not re-signing is a good thing for the flames , both contracts will age poorly and Calgary has no path to contending over the next few years anyways.

Lol nothing they can do about that now (at least for Huberdeau) but flames are in the “not good enough to make the playoffs, not bad bad enough to get a high pick” situation even with Lindholm and Hanifin. This news should make CGY re-think their direction and rebuild. They have a lot of good trade pieces

That Weegar contract is easily tradeable. There are plenty of teams that would offer a deal like that in free agency right now, especially given how weak this UFA class is.

So Philly, Winnipeg, Calgary (and DeBrincat) I’m guessing will want to try and get 2023 draft capital if possible. One idea is that the most likely to move is the most valuable - the best of the best when considering all things.

I wonder who the best is (I put these in rough order of what I think)

Lindholm (best C)
Kyle Connor (Best W)
Konecny
Laughton (cause of aav for cash tight team)
Hanafin
Hart
Scheifele
Toffoli
DeBrincat (cause only 5 teams)
Hellebuyck (cause cost of contract)
Backlund
PLD (cause he’s going to Montreal)

So many people. I’m forgetting some.

Imagine if Chicago scooped up ROR, Lindholm, Hart, DeBrincat…..Dare I say that’s a bubble team Ready to rock in 2 years or so? Prob like 3 firsts of value out and 28 mil against the cap or so.

I don't know, but regardless, he has no trade protection at the moment, and if you're doing a rebuild, he'd be a great asset to sell off.

all this news about Calgary makes me smile, also nobody even talked about how Mitch Love left Calgary for Washington

McDavid's game 5 OT winner started the downfall of Calgary
