Trade Deadline - New Czechmates
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Celtics21</b></div><div>I will suggest based on your feedback on every Lindholm deal I saw during discussions that this is more after the fact rationalization to pacify yourself rather than the truth.
Its OK. It’s going to happen on the Hanifin deal as well.
I saw multiple fans calling Kuzmenko a negative contract and only one who really focused on Hunter pre deal (props to Ledge &). I think it was a good deal for Lindholm. I am curious how Hunter adjusts to the AHL, because the best player on Kitchener last year (Pinielli) has 8 points in like 40 games at Ontario. He’s performed much better than expected as an overage prospect in the OHL to date and looks like a very good 3rd round pick.</div></div>
Most of my deals for Lindholm prioritized a center prospect and a 1st, like Lindholm to Seattle for Wennberg, a 1st, and OFM. To be honest, I didn't think Van would part with Hunter Brzustewicz. I thought it would be Raty considering the lack of center depth in Calgary's system.
I also didn't want Kuzmenko given that he is another winger, and a cap dump; but, c'est la vie....Calgary can always trade him elsewhere if he improves. If not, It only a year and they aren't contending next year either. There are too many holes to fill in the roster and the farm to be anything but mediocre again. But that's what you get when you draft as poorly as the Flames have. Fun fact, the Bruins actually have the same amount of top-10 picks as the Flames since 1992, but 72 more playoff wins in that span. I'm shocked Todd Button still has a job. If it wasn't for Fox and Gaudreau, Calgary would rank a lot lower in draft wins.

It doesn't really address any need for Calgary. They would be better off trading the two individually for futures and the odd cap dump.

Trade Deadline - New Czechmates
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Celtics21</b></div><div>If fans were valuing Coronato or Wolf as late 2nd round picks, you’d speak up.
With the failure rate of prospects, I think your position.on your plethora of prospects is naive. Lysell likely gets significant playing time in Calgary if he was traded there. Watch him this year if you’d like to see what he’s become
Zadarov and Lindholm went for exactly what their market was and it’s for considerably less than any of the packages that you have tossed out there.
I will acknowledge that once Hanifin is traded, he may view that as a more viable long term place to stay vs Calgary, but he is just months away from FA and his hometown team has opportunity, interest, and cap space plus they are just frankly a better team right now.
Boston shouldn’t trade their 3 NHL ready prospects if they are being valued below a late first in a bad draft.</div></div>
Lindholm went for more than I had proposed, which was a 1st, a blue chip prospect and whatever salary dump that came back. The 4th/3rd and Joni Jurmo are toss-ins above that rate. Hunter Brzustewicz, the 2024 first-round pick and kuzmenko were exactly the return expected. Conversely, Zadorov's return wasn't as good, but Conroy's priority was not retaining salary and moving him before it became a distraction to the team. Hanifin is having a great year (as opposed to Lindholm) and is younger. It's not unreasonable to expect a return in line with Lindholm's: 1st, bluechip prospect, and whatever salary needs to come back. Lysell's junior numbers are close to Hunter Brzustewicz's, except the latter is an RD and 3rd in OHL scoring. If you look at the previous award winners of OHL scoring for d-men most went on the be good NHL players (Rasmus Anderson, Ryan Ellis, Dougie Hamilton, Evan Bouchard.... I'll ignore Deangelo but he is there too). In short, Calgary will trade for the best package, and this could easily be beaten by other teams who have draft capital and depth at the positions they need.
I'm well aware of why the AHL is the farm system: many prospects who excel in the AHL don't in the NHL (Matt Phillips was a leading scorer in the AHL and struggled this year). Of all our top prospects, only Wolf and Hunter Brzustewicz aren't wingers:
Honzek- LW
Zary -LW/C.
Pelletier - LW
Coronato -RW
Bell -LW/RW
Pospisil -RW
Suniev - LW/RW
There isn't a ton of wingers spots on our roster and we only have two natural centers playing right now at the NHL level.
Regardless of the probabilities of any player being a success at the NHL level, the distribution of the prospect pool is what it is: Calgary has more wingers on their NHL roster and in the system than any other position. Natural Centers and Defense is lacking in our system. Calgary also isn't in a position to buy a rental or contend for the cup, so your point about including wolf or Coronato in a deal is moot. If we were AZ, Buffalo, Ottawa or NJ and had the chance to take a run at the cup, then a rental would make sense. They have the prospect depth to make those moves without it severely impacting them down the road. Calgary doesn't. Boston doesn't either, which is why you are overvaluing bruin's prospects in comparison to other teams comparable prospects. Just because they are more critical to your team doesn't mean they are better than a prospect on another team with a deep farm system.

Realistic deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AdamL188</b></div><div>it says 7x7 extension directly on the trade</div></div>
What's the point in negotiating the extension at 7x7, when the whole point of acquiring him is to have the leverage of an 8th year over other teams?
Also, I doubt Hanifin gets a smaller return than Lindholm given he is having a better year and is younger.

Every Boston fan thinks the few prospects they have in the system are elite and coveted by every team.
Also, Calgary has a plethora of wingers so, this trade is even more uninspiring

Kuzmenko
Calgary has a ton of wingers in their system. They would be looking for Center or D prospects. That is, unless it was for Perrault, which I doubt.
I think Kuzmenko would thrive in NY for what it is worth.

Yeah, I'm not suggesting we trade him. The above package is borderline in my opinion, as the Sabres pick this year would probably be less than it is now with Anderson on the team. I would also want Ostlund over Savoie

I feel like Huberdeau will play out like Benn and Seguin in Dallas. Everyone was calling them the worst contracts in the league until Dallas killed it in two drafts and had a killer roster to support them.
I don't understand why teams aren't poaching Dallas's scouting department. No way that was luck

I doubt that. The difference is 4MM and Huberdeau would have better talent to play with on MTL. I could see him rebounding
Buffalo would be ideal for him because they have a big, talented center in Tage Thompson, which is what he needs to get space if the offensive zone.
Of course neither will happen unless he does step up and the cap increases
