Thread: An Eichel Trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Chapee44</b></div><div>I would agree but Tanev is one of the top 2 D on Calgary. I would be fine with a top pair D. Reinhart absolutely does cut it. The people that say he doesn't are off their rockers. 16 games at C this season he has 10 goals and 15 points. He's also played well defensively. Lastly, you only have to pay him that much if it goes to qualification. He can sign for anything at anytime after July 27th this year when the next "season" starts.</div></div>

To the point of signing Tkachuk, if he has a shot at 9 million next year I think it would be tough to convince him to sign for less but I get your point. That's awesome about Reinhart, I have always liked him as a player and a guy I would be over the moon to see on the Flames.

Thread: Trying someone elses trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gmonwy</b></div><div>Okay would a 1 for 1 be fair? Who would have to add if not? Who could replace Barrie?</div></div>

Tanev's value is likely a 2nd or a high 3rd, if the Flyers were to throw Bobby Brink and a 3rd I think value wise you're very close. In the minds of Flames fans (mine included) and likely the organization Tanev is worth a low end 1st because of how he played this year but I don't see a team paying that because of the future risk of a stay at home d man that blocks a hundred shots a year.

I just don't think there is a strong enough RD UFA class to justify moving Tanev, Barrie is the anti-Tanev and almost 60% of his points are secondary assists, he can chip a puck out from behind his net and McDdavid Draisaitl do the rest, I think unless he's back in Edmonton then expect his production to drop significantly. If he does stay in Edmonton I think that opens up the only 2RD option this year which would be Larsson, who I think unanimously people would keep Tanev over Larsson.
Unless they make a separate move for an RFA like Pionk, Jokiharju, Hronek it will be a very tough hole for the Flames to fill. Filling in a 3RD though, much easier, Hamonic, Gudbransson, Demers, Bogosian etc.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lenny7</b></div><div>I feel like Ottawa is past the point where they need to be accumulating draft picks. There comes a time when you have to actually add to your team, as opposed to selling over and over again.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tarlam01</b></div><div>Batherson is not available. Not even 1 on 1 for Gaudreau. This is coming from a neutral perspective so nothing is biased</div></div>

That is kind of what I figured with Batherson, thanks fellas.

Thread: tkachuk to buff
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Skyraider112</b></div><div>Your comment isn't any more enlightening imo. Gaudreau and Monahan gonna both be gone in 2 years, leaving you with weak top 6. Giordano will retire and who will fill the leadership and defensive void? I think Calgary should be looking to rebuild, insofar as trading Gaudreau and Monahan before they walk and hopefully acquiring some talent up front</div></div>

Giordano hopefully goes to Seattle, filled by Hanifin and Valimaki in the left side, simple fix. Tanev leads that group Hanifin grows into it, back end is fine.

There has been talk about signing Gaudreau long term cause his M-NTC clause kicks in this summer, Monahan isn’t even playing top six minutes right now so both those situations you’ve presented are inaccurate. Top six will still be Lindholm, Tkachuk, Mangiapane, Backlund, Dube UFA or draft pieces

Sutter said he’s not going to coach a rebuild and Treliving will be working for a new contract, rebuilding doesn’t get you that. What we have established is what you think and what has been said around the Flames organization, I can’t see a reason to entertain the former in any way
