So what exactly would be your plan with Mony? He won't push Taveras or Matthew's out on 1C and 2C he's way too good to be a 3C especially at his price, and he's not exactly a winger. Saying AJ and Kap are better than Bennett is just blind arrogance. They both played on Matthew's wing nearly all year where Bennett spent the majority of his time on the 3rd line.
I already mentioned in one of my posts that it made little to no sense for Toronto because they can't afford Monahan and he would be wasted as a 3C and would likely have to play wing. I didn't make the proposal I'm simply commenting on it.
That's very wishful thinking after the two seasons that he just had and at his current age. Try a 4th or 5th.
Hey don't get me wrong I'd love it if the Flames gave up a 2nd or a 3rd for Anderson. I just don't see it happening.
We don't really wan to give up a pick that has a ton of value to get Anderson.
No doubt TML would get extension talk before a deal is made
I’ve mentioned it before, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we boosted Brodie’s rental value by taking on the Zaitsev contract.
I don't see why we do that. There are two reasons we trade Brodie beyond improving our fire power with the forward core, and that is to make room for Kylington/Valimaki/Brodie/whoever and to maybe free up some cap space. If we take on Zaitsev? Then we don't have the room and our cap space is in the exact same spot just for 4x longer. Don't think the Flames want anything to do with Zaitsev tbh.
What would you want for Brendan Gallagher... would love to see him play for Calgary
After a great regular season (the best one since ‘89), the Flames were outplayed pretty badly against Colorado. Inexperienced for sure with a lot of players, but our top players didn’t play like top players. You know it’s a problem when Bennett is your top scorer in the playoffs. I don’t think Calgary is in “major shakeup mode” like last off-season, but they are definitely trying to figure out on getting another top 6 player. We’ll see what happens.
Make a trade with your favorite team with this team that MAKES SENSE FOR BOTH SIDES. It can be 1 for 1, taking on a bad contract, flipping 7th rounders, whatever you deem necessary to not only make your team better but the other one too. If it's a rebuilding/retooling side they obviously want something for the future.
Honestly, I know CGY is lacking in RW forwards, but so are the Habs.
