Friedman: Flames growing “impatient”

[viper0220]

I think Monahan, Bennett, Janko, Brodie and Hammer are all available, for Monahan to go a play making center needs to come back, the rest can go in just minor hockey trades

If Monahan is being traded, than we will likely get back a center of Monahan's caliber not better and there is no point in that.

Hoffman for Hamonic

Hoffman for Hamonic

Done! Sign and sealed.

middlestat + Risto for Monahan? Or something around that base?

 

[Flameshomer]

Is there a bottomless well that we could drop janko lucic and Bennett into and just go out and get a whole new 4th line?

Sometimes it's just for a shakeup for both player and team, I think Monahan for a player like say Zibanejad might help both players and both teams

Not a chance from a Flames perspective

 

[Cherry Picker]

To CAL: Nylander + Kerfoot + Barrie

To TOR: Monahan + Bennett + Hamonic

Nylander goes to his hometown and proceeds to go PPG at centre. Flames are also lacking in puck moving ability from the right side defence.

Leafs sacrifice speed and high end skill for better 2-way players. Hamonic would give Rielly a solid partner. I would play Monahan in Matthews LW, Bennett at 3C with Miky and Moore.

The Flames are already soft as butter and this trade makes them even softer. I don't think that the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Calgary Flames are good trading partners.

I'd be interested in Bennett for Ottawa

 

[The Podium]

Bennett + Hamonic + pick/prospect
Kerfoot + Barrie

Equal money in and out, shakeup trade, both teams get what they need

 

[super6646]

Kerfoot + Barrie

Equal money in and out, shakeup trade, both teams get what they need

I'd do this if the pick is low (3rd round or less, or a C prospect like Gawdin).

Gaudreau-Monahan-Lindholm
Tkachuk-Kerfoot-Ryan
Mangiapane-Backlund-Frolik
Lucic-Jankowski-Reider/Czarnik

Gio-Brodie/Barrie
Hanifin-Brodie/Barrie/Andersson
Kylington-Andersson/Brodie

 

[Bond]

I think they trade Gaudreau if they go after a big shake up. Can't see Tkachuk getting traded.

 

[RedHawkDown]

Andreas Athanasiou + 2nd for Noah Hanifin

Nope

Monahan has been one of the few bright spots of this year, hes played great just has a crappy S% which will fix itself over time. Hes one of the last plauers I would consider trading atm

 

[Just Linda]

The biggest problem in Calgary stands behind the bench, Peters is a good coach who runs weak systems. There's a reason Carolina has gone from annual underachievers to near contenders almost as soon as Peters left. His systems are too passive and rely too much on positioning rather than pressure (ie get in lanes rather than challenge shooters). He hasn't had much to work with in net but it's no coincidence that only one goalie has ever put up better numbers with him than without him. If Calgary had tippet for example behind the bench, there'd be no debate about their place in the league.

 

[CraigsList]

Dougie Hamilton would look nice for Flames.

Better than Lindholm and Hanifin? Nope.

Awful for the flames

 

[Muffin]

Flames overachieved last year, this season is who they truly are, a bubble team that might sneak into a wildcard spot.
Everyone saw this coming except Flames fans. No way what they were doing last year is sustainable.

 

[Hatter of the Beach]

Maybe something around Athanasiou for Valamaki

Not close

 

[Hatter of the Beach]

Not close

Lmfao the amount potential is overrated on this board is hysterical. Athanasiou is a 30 goal scorer. Young players have had a better first 25 games than JV and busted. I wouldn’t bet on it but gtfo of here with that “not close”. If anything Detroit would be taking the bulk of the gamble
