Mangiapane is a legit top 6 forward, I can't imagine he's available and definitely not for a package like that

Yeah that's gonna be a huge no, most flames fans don't want lindholm traded, let alone to the oilers, and definitely not for that return

So apparently Calgary's only goalie options are Matt Murray or Andersen and we're willing to massively overpay for both. Please stop proposing this awful trade.

Thread: Canes Flames fans thoughts

I can't see the flames packaging 2 good players for that kind of return, the value isn't all that close. I like Montour, I like the 8th OA but mittelstadt has way too many question marks around him and Johansson would be another depth winger we could live without.

Forum: Armchair-GMAug. 25, 2020 at 5:01 p.m.

Thread: Different Approach

If Calgary's not trading Bennett for Murray we're definitely not trading Backlund. We already have thin centre depth, moving Backlund would leave a massive hole up the middle. Please stop with the Murray trades, there's no fit here

Please stop with the Bennett/Murray trades it's just not going to happen.

Thread: CGY Trade

I just don't see it with Murray, maybe it's because I'm a flames fan and don't see him much but he always seems to be hurt or getting blown out. With the amount of FA goalies this off season is be way more comfortable going after one of them than giving up assets for Murray. Honestly our goaltending this season really wasn't a problem, scoring goals on the other hand...

Thread: Flames offseason

I must be missing why everyone is infatuated with Matt Murray. Like I get it he's won 2 cups but he's been out played by Jarry consistently not to mention the guy is made of glass, I'm not paying a first to have Rittich be the starter when he inevitably gets concussed.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cgy_flame_fan</b></div><div>flames accept, domi is a downgrade but the pick & poehling make up for that</div></div>

I mean Poehling has struggled quite a bit, I doubt he even cracks the starting roster he's basically Janko 2.0 at this point. I think I'd pass there are better deals for Gaudreau out there, I'm not sure mtl has the right pieces unless they're giving up guys like Suzuki which they obviously won't

Thread: Lindholm Brodin Johnny Hockey

What should the habs remove from this deal tho?[/quote]

First off you can take Lindholm out of the deal, he's not being moved. Any deal here would be strictly for Gaudreau and some complementary pieces, adding another top 6 forward from Calgary s perspective would be counter productive. Calgary's in win now mode so forget Caufield he's way too far away from being a full time nhler, Drouin would fit but I'm not sure he's better than other internal options plus he's had his health issues, and unless Poehling magically develops into a #2 centre over the next 2-3 years he's definitely a redundant player in Calgary. I'm just not sure there's a fit here, maybe something around Domi + but I'm not sure.

Thread: Lindholm Brodin Johnny Hockey

That's cgy deal is just bad for mtl. You're gutting half your roster for 2 players, 2 very good players, but why not keep the assets you're giving up and hope one of them turns into a difference maker? Mtl isn't far off from being competitive again this deal is a huge step in the wrong direction. Are you really comfortable putting Suzuki in as your top line centre in year 2? As for Cgy, that's a massive influx of players on a team that doesn't need a complete overhaul and I don't think any of those players are the solution to our problems. Just a weird and unnecessary deal all around

Thread: Flames

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tkachinla</b></div><div>6 years with Gaudreau and Monahan as core players. Missed playoffs twice. Went beyond Round 1 once (and got smoked by ANA). Quick exits twice. It's time to move on and try a new approach. Both guys are super talented, and CGY and both players will benefit greatly from fresh starts.

+ Gaudreau has 2 full seasons remaining on his contract, which is very valuable. Monahan has 3 full seasons remaining. Both on great cap hits for what they're worth.</div></div>

Dang I really thought next year was it for him contract wise my bad lol even better then 2 full years shoots his value up even more
