Thread: Flames fans are crazy man
I think you are having a hard time distinguishing between people not liking the idea and just not liking you. I think a lot of people just constantly see you constantly everywhere (5 armchair gm's before 11am today, none with a a constructive thought) contributing nothing other than "flames decline" "leafs accept" "leafs decline" so on so on so on, and just think hey, this guy sucks, doesn't have a thought bouncing between his ears and crys like a **** at any hint of critisism. You also can't answer simple questions most of the time, throw a tantrum, disappear and pad your echo chamber with the ignore list at the slightest inconvenience.

Regarding the Klingberg part of your trade IT DOESN"T MAKE SENSE. Tanev is better than Zadorov, why would Calgary maximize value on Zadorov as opposed to Tanev with retention? The Flames should get a late 1st for Tanev @ 50%, make that the post and no one bats an eye, when you start saying things like "flip Klingberg" you lose everyone because that just doesn't happen. You also suggested that Klingberg got a couple prospects last year when he got a 33 year old German League player, so you can pretty quickly figure out why no one give you any credibility.

You're extraordinarily sensitive and refuse to take no for an answer on something that is a horrid idea. You are a petulant child.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ansabch12</b></div><div>Pelletier put up 62 pts in 66 games in the AHL as a rookie while playing solid defence so he isnt a B tier prospect hes 100% an A level prospect so hes the big piece here if he isn't a needle mover you are vastly overrating Conor Garland, if Monahan does gain any semblance of his former skill back thats another asset that can be dealt, it really isn't as bad as you think it is.

Also off topic but its nice seeing another Senjougahara fan on this site lmao</div></div>

My issues with you disappear with that last comment. Pelletier is god tier prospect now.

But I see what you are getting at, I just think Vancouver would want a roster spot that isn't mostly dead weight, in a trade involving their pieces. Granted Pelletier will be a roster player for a team in a year at the lastest, I just think the Canucks have better suitors for Garland if the rumor mill is that he's one of our expendables.

Thread: You Want Grit I Gotcher Grit Right Cheer
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Copenhagen</b></div><div>Nylander for Tkachuk is pretty close and that guy wants to go you a first and a 2nd and Dermott.</div></div>

How is it close?

Calgary gets worse defensively, they get way easier to paly against, they lose almost 0.1 PPG, Tkachuk has more goals and assist than Nylander in less games, nearly every possession stat favours Tkachuk. Nylander is older and a UFA at the end of his deal, Tkachuk has the ability to be under team control for 9 more years, they're getting paid nearly the same right now.

Dermott wouldn't play.. and your not replacing Valimaki, Hanifin or Giordano for him, his deal is up at the end of the year and the Flames have prospects at LD that can slide in at a minumum deal behind Hanifin Valimaki, the 1st is next year and likely between 26-32, that doesn't help a team looking for impact players now, that leaves the Flames with another mediocre prospect that probably slides into a middle 6.

Thread: PLD coming
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ansabch12</b></div><div>For starters, "way bigger" is just flat out wrong its close enough that this would be a starting point for a deal. Monahan has 3 years left at 6.3 mil while entering his prime and Dubois has a higher ceiling but is only signed for 2 years. Dubois' career high in points is 61 points while Monahan has put up 82 pts in 78 games. Now I understand that Monahan doesnt command the same value as Dubois but I think people especially on this site underestimate Monahan, after 1 down year in a season where we had a major coaching scandal and a pandemic that shut down the season. Every year Monahan has gotten better and has put up 20+ goals every season since he was a rookie. The difference between the two isn't so large that the Flames would throw in a blue chip prospect, but it is large enough to warrant a 1st round pick and a solid prospect like Zavgorodny and a good young defenceman like Kylington.</div></div>

Pretty good breakdown of your thought process and I agree on this.


<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryancnbb</b></div><div>partly true but ya PLD has one less year but he is an RFA and Monahan isn't.</div></div>

CBJ will have plenty of opportunities to resign him in the span of his contract.

The value in this trade seems to be there.

Thread: johnny
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ansabch12</b></div><div>I think if anyone was watching the last series against Dallas you could see that he was playing as hard as he could, any reasonable Flames fan would not place the loss squarely on him. Not to mention we lost to the Western conference champs while being one goal away from a 3-1 lead. It's hard to count last year for his value mostly because of the turbulent season the Flames had with the sudden coaching change and the line shifting. I think this year is the final test for this core, alot of people assume the Flames want to move on from him but its mostly just rumors with little to no evidence. This year we've bolstered our depth, gotten a top 10 goalie, and we have one of our best young defencemen playing healthy. If he doesn't perform this year or if were nowhere near the playoffs by the deadline then for sure we would be interested in the kind of deal you're offering.</div></div>

That also lines up with the little I know. Its really difficult to understand why you would move on from him and like you said, they made some good moves.
