The team's goal is always compete, which is fine, but it is to just get in and anything can happen. These deals he's made all year are very much in that vein... he is looking for near NHL ready players. I think they are going to be quite bad. They have three legitimate NHL D right now.

Somebody has to play here while the picks go in the pipeline. near ready players are like draft picks that have already have time to ripen a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfire11 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 I'm happy it's done. Under whelmed by the return but was preparing for worse. A 1st and 2nd can land us through draft or trade a player that will make us forget Hannifin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't agree, clearing out all the main UFAs is likely to drop the Flames into the bottom 10, or better. Let's see what happens with Markstrom. In addition we gained lots of Cap space, and opened up space for our rookies, while obtaining a few vets to help out. I think he has done well, if it is a homer overall will depend on drafting... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember..all Vegas had to do was give the best offer .. that means the others were worse On the positive side .. that was the last of the "had to trade them " club.. any future moves he holds the cards And hey ..he stacked the deck against the oilers in the process..that's worth value too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cross16 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 So it's not a first rounder this year. It's 2025 unless Vegas trades it this year, then it's 2026. Vegas hosts the draft this year so not surprisingly they didn't want to deal their pick this year. Yeah.. just not good all around here for Calgary. Although I don't mind at all the idea of getting 1st rounder in 25/26. Like the idea of spreading that out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conditional 2024 3rd, upgrades to 2nd if Vegas wins 1 round this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travel_dude Posted March 7 Author Report Share Posted March 7 2025 1st if it's not top 10 otherwise 2026 2025 3rd becomes a 2nd if they win a round Underhwhelming to say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cross16 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 As you would expect, the 2025 pick is top 10 protected. Will convert to a 2026 if Vegas is in the top 10 (unlikely anyway) So 2 conditions on the 1st rounder. 1 of which we'll know soon and the other we'll have to wait a season on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted March 7 Author Report Share Posted March 7 Stupid, we aren't even guaranteed to have their pick next year if they trade it. No wonder it took so long, the NHL was laughing too hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robrob74 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 You'd think they'd have gotten more for retaining? Oh well, up to the Flames now for getting value at the various drafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cross16 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 Clarification on the 3rd rounder. It's a 3rd rounder this year that converts to a 2nd next year if Vegas wins as a round (as they don't have a 2nd rounder this year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
