I lived in Calgary and been to Banff many many times . I been to Jasper twice . Jasper isn't commercialize like Banff is . Jasper feel natural like it should . Banff feel like a trap to screw you in the wallet .
Gardiner has back problems doesn't he? He's also going to cost a lot. So many players coming off of Toronto are overvalued
still amused how hard of a spin some posters and media guys are spinning how much Neal is worse then Lucic
they are still pissed we moved the unmovable contract
Ristolainen suffers from playing too many minutes at too high a level of competition. He's not great in his own end, and he's historically been played like a #1 despite not being one.
He would look good in the bottom four with first unit powerplay time. He's a talented player who would benefit from a fresh start.
He would not be a good fit with Nurse, which means he would have to be bottom pairing. Benning can't play on the second pair and thrive, and Russell is better on the left. So Ristolainen isn't a perfect fit, but he does improve our roster.
Search for "lucic" posts by any Flames poster and the results are nothing but ripping him until last Friday.still amused how hard of a spin some posters and media guys are spinning how much Neal is worse then Lucic

Let me get this straight a player who has just been bought out is somehow going to command more on the market after the buyout than he was making during the actual contract? If there is a single team in the league that would even entertain that they would have just traded for him, got him at a reduced cost compared to what you're suggesting, and probably get NY to throw something in to save them from the caphit for the next 4 years.

Larry Brooks just wrote about the likelihood of Shattenkirk getting bought out by the Rangers. If he does in fact get bought out I wonder if there may be a 1 year fit here for the Oilers on a low dollar deal.
He already nixed a trade here as a pending UFA so I can't imagine his desire of not wanting to be here will be any different now
Remember the Lucic+ 1st + bouchard for erikssonEveryone thought we'd have to retain 2 million, add 4 1sts and a good player to get out of it.
