Bobby Ryan for the low, low price of a 2021 2nd? :naughty:

But honestly the Flames should just blow it up. I really can't see this group getting over the hump. They should hold on Tkachuk and try to sell what they can, wait out what they can't. It's a painful process but its how rebuilds work in a world.

What would a "massive overpayment" look like? Donskoi + Timmins? Just curious what Mangiapane's value is.
Why would the Flames trade Mangiapane for two worse players? The Flames have lots of dmen. Zero need for Timmins.

Anyone got a meathead RW that can score available? You know that’ll fit in with this coaching change.

With Sutter coming in, wonder if there's some AHL 3rd liner out there that Sutter can recommend the Flames go after. Might just get another franchise piece doing that.

Sort of off topic but does only Calgary fans know what a stud Mangiapane has become? Last year not a single player in the nhl had more even strength goals with less ice time than him. This year he is tied for 38th in even strength goals (48th for all situations), which doesn’t sound that impressive until you realize he is still doing it from the 3rd line and he is doing it while having added high end defense and forechecking. Kids still only 23 playing in his second full season.

Should be noted he was tied for 4th in the month of February for goals with 8 and only 1 of his 11 points in that period was on the man advantage

Fair, but Anaheim would want less risk when dealing rakell.

The other problem that prevents Calgary from giving up a 1st for Rakell is that it messes up our expansion draft protection. He'd be a great add most years, but if we add Rakell, we need to expose Backlund which is not ideal.
