Time for flames fans to wake up lol I’m sorry I shouldn’t say that but it is hilarious how much better all my offers were and this is what he goes for

There are definitely a few on this app who are off their rocker on Zadorov but all Hanifin, Lindholm and Tanev proposals I've seen have been pretty decent value. (Aside from the 1 or 2 massive over/underpays) Every fanbase has those fans who overrate their guys.

Leaf fans are probably wondering why they didn't offer more. I'm wondering why we didn't wait for more? Oh well, he gone now.

It's because a 3rd round pick is market value for a #5 defenseman.

Like how a 2nd round pick + is the market value for Tanev.

I’m surprised leafs couldn’t beat it maybe they didn’t want to deal with the ex gm I’m not sure but they have to get tanev overpay to push a deal through who cares

Nah, I'm not convinced Connie is done yet, I'm hoping he made a quick move to facilitate something else.

The markets whatever, explain Jeannot.

Yes, you can make reasonable assumptions but as a fan, I want Jeannot trades for all my guys.

I'm pretty sure Jeannot was a favour owed by TBL to NSH. That's a weird one for sure.

How is it fine? You got nothing for something?

More than we paid for him, didn't need to use a retention slot. Screwed our gm's leverage by publicly req a trade. Space to call up Soloyvov. Seems pretty fair to me.

I don’t agree, I think the trade ask was good marketing. But tbh I don’t get it, surely he is worth a 2cd, and the 3rd is in 2026.

It was and it wasn't. It brought attention to himself and probably got Conny more offers but because everyone knew he wasn't resigning those offers probably weren't as good. With all the attention on Zadorov he proceeded to have probably the worst 10 or so game stretch I have ever seen from him so that probably didn't help either. Maybe he could have got 2nd but then I think its just a late second and at that stage of the draft I would probably rather 2 picks than one. 3rd being in 2026 isn't ideal but it's still a 3rd nonetheless.
