phoenix66 Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Compher to Detroit ..I'll pass on a $5m AAV. Toronto gets Klingberg. That could dampen them as a Hanifin spot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travel_dude Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 I'm not big on the silly season, but if we plan on building a team just through trades, we best be getting some trades done this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you may see a few moves in a few days or weeks, after teams fail to get their UFA’s and other trade bait options fall In place…Conroy is playing the patient game and he can… Hanifin only wants to go because he wants to be in the USA…he’s been quoted as saying otherwise he’d be happy to stay long term in Cgy…he’s got Gaudreau family situation going on not anyone’s fault just that’s life…but Hanifin is not pushing to leave asap so plenty of time to move him same with Backlund, Lindhom and anyone else is not a rush we can take out time get what we need for a solid return for whoever wants or needs to be traded this year.

Easy filling vets in the lineup for the young players to learn form and to have bodies to ice a team worth watching longest term is 5 years so not horrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyflames Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 The biggest problem is that no players want to come to Calgary right now through free agent market. Also Calgary probably is the number 1 no trade destination for lot of players. In that regard, you don’t have much to play with it. So unless we fix this culture problem, this organisation is going no where. They just refuse to rebuild, that’s the biggest mistake for this organisation. I don’t think anybody new here is gonna making any difference, it’s still the old blood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's still coming, but I don't know if anyone has heard any rumours at all. Seems like there's not a market for our guys. Maybe once the dust settles and teams haven't got their guy? maybe the TDL is where the value is. But then the Flames have only dealt Glencross at the deadline, that I can recall, when in a race. Does making the playoffs help guys decide to stay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does making the playoffs help guys decide to stay? Conroy said there wasn't much trade chatter today. Which would make sense as the bidding for UFA's is typically time sensitive. Could pick up tomorrow or in the coming days. I actually think playoffs have nothing to do with whether or not players want to stay. Look at Gaudreau. 115pts, played on the best line in hockey and played on one of the better teams in the league in his walk year. I know there were other factors at play too. Two major risks if the Flames keep Hanifin and Lindholm this summer. -Injury. - The team plays well. Then you can't sell at the deadline. I'd be trading both this summer. Hanifin has made up his mind. Even if he starts the season here, he has one foot out the door. The fact that Lindholm hasn't given an answer is an answer IMO. They've reportedly have/would pay him 72m. The argument of a higher cap doesn't really apply to Lindholm, because I don't see any world where he would get more than 9 as a UFA, even with a higher cap. Trade both, look to get younger and go from there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won't be instant but they are going to be an incredible force for years. Even after this, don't expect them to give up picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think anybody new here is gonna making any difference, it’s still the old blood. There is always a lot of talk on here about people waiting for the Flames organisation to tell us that they are rebuilding. As if any rebuild was ever pre-announced from any organisation ever, or that the organisation even had a say in it. imho, don't worry what the organisation says on the surface. all organisations say they are trying to win lol. Flames are at a certain phase right now, call it what you want, but it's a phase where often big-name free-agent signings become difficult. That's a good thing, because the big-name free agent signings are usually not that great. Soon, we'll be able to sign players who just want ice time and an opportunity. Some great things can come out of that, even if they're not household names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
