Flames Fanatic
Mediocre
Stone + Bennett for Hoffman + maybe a 2nd
Ottawa blocks our phone number after that offer.
They wouldn't do that offer even without the 2nd involved.

Stop worrying about what Ottawa would do, worry about what the Flames gotta doOttawa blocks our phone number after that offer.

I'm not really sure why OTT fans think they are going to get a kings ransom for Hoffman. He's a solid offensive piece for anyone's top 6. But he's not Wayne Simmonds. defensive prospects are all we can afford. I wouldn't trade Bennett straight up for him given the upside he still has and the toughness he brings on the ice. I've seen enough of Hoffman to know what he is, and I'm a big Hoffman fan as well, guy is clutch imo. But he's not worth what their fans are asking for.
I'm a little late to the party but Domi would cost much more than Bennett. Bennett doesn't even get us in the door.
Nash is a more expensive Vanek. Do not want
Rumour has it he's going back to NYR in the offseason. No idea of source, heard it on the radio.Nash is a guy I might look into during the offseason. Definitely not a deadline deal though. I feel like Stempniak would fill the same role, and he'd be much cheaper.
Bennett has had less success with Versteeg than he has with Brouwer, Bennett's drop off last season came when Brouwer was injured and Versteeg was bumped down the lineup.When Versteeg is back...
Gaudreau - Monahan - Ferland
Tkachuk - Backlund - Frolik
Bennett - Jankowski - Versteeg
Lazar - Stajan - Brouwer
Hathaway/Klimchuk
Send Hrivik and Mangiapane back down, recall Klimchuk for a bit and give him some time, even if it's just to get him in some practices and see how he does.
I don't believe that. No way they get a 4/5 defenseman signed to a decent contract and Bennett for a younger Hudler and a 2nd. They wouldn't get Bennett alone for Hoffman, especially at almost 5.2 millionOttawa blocks our phone number after that offer.

If we find ourselves slipping well out of the playoff race, would you trade Hamilton for the "large chunk of futures" Yzerman has reported put up on the table?
