I'd come from Ontario to drive Gustafsson and Hinostroza to the airport myself

I am very sure that would be a downgrade from his regular ride to the airport.

I really wonder? Why would CGY want to do this trade?

 

[ColdSteel2]

Seems like fans here like Brodie a lot. 28 for next season though, not too old, but I don’t know that we would want to resign him in 3 years. He’ll want his version of a Seabrook deal. He’s good, but I don’t want to commit big money long term to anyone in that age range unless it is a clear cut No. 1 like DD or Karlsson. People are even saying DD and EK are slipping. We should stay young. And that package is pretty strong too.

Brodie isn't a 1D, but I'll tell you this. WOWY and eye speaking Brodie waas better than Giordano from 2013-2014 to 2015-2016. He fell off a cliff then, and while I feel not playing with Giordano had an effect. He had to deal with his wife getting MS, switching from RD to LD (He is better as a RD because his backhand is better than his forehand, and I've never seen someone reverse from a LHS to RHS so efficiently like he does). But I feel the main reason is because of Gulutzan's system that does not allow him to use his speed and passing abilities properly. He played well with Engelland and Wideman in Hartley's system as a LD, and he played extremely well with Russell so it's not entirely Giordano's effect unlike Dougie Hamilton who hasn't looked good without Giordano (And heck even looked bad with Gio during the Hartley era). Plus Giordano was never as dominant without Brodie prior to 2013-2014. Sure he scored a ton of points some years, but his defense was far more suspect.

Here we have a problem. Q's system doesn't let Dmen use these attributes either.

Q has/had a strong distaste for D skating the puck (he has a preference for the stretch pass) so he 100% has held back Leddy, Forsling, and Campbell. Keith/Hammer thrived in the system during the Hawks run. Seabrook (during his better days) would fit any system.

 

[CallMeShaft]

I have no interest in trading Hino.

I agree. Would not trade Vinnie at this point. I'd put oesterle in that deal instaed

How about we give you Seabrook, Gus, and NSH 1st for Brodie?

And you also give us Debrincat, while taking Brouwer's contract? Hmm I need to think about that for a moment.

Seabrook has basically become the Voldemort of the NHL.

"Expecto Patronum!"

Nope. I'm still sad.
