This is a pretty convincing statement for me, to be honest. Granted I still don't want to blow it up entirely and sell every last asset, I definitely agree we need sell.I don't see how this club has any more integrity than one that tanks. This club just doesn't try hard
I don't see us being sellers at the deadline because:
a) Let's get real. This is Feaster and King. And they've got a "rock solid" and "intellectually honest" plan they're not about to deviate from.
b) Who would we sell? The Flames aren't letting go Iginla clearly. But after that who? We're not going to get good value for anyone.
I'm just hoping for blowout losses game in and game out so as to be sure there isn't a single shadow of doubt in the minds of management that this team is complete and utter garbage. This year, let's realize we're garbage and maybe this time next year we can try and address it. Seriously, this is how little I think of the Flames direction.
Ah yes, this sensible strategy has clearly worked for this team before.Changes has to be made with this team....I don't care what, but make a trade
Darryl is the perfect guy for the Kings, a big and fast team exactly how he likes it
Glad to see him have success else where

+1. As I said to you last night, Iginla looked completely unsatisfied. I honestly wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he is traded at the deadline.I know this is the point you're getting at but I feel the need to express my opinion. Not to you, but just in general.
This "intellectual honesty" ******** is the biggest pile of ****ing **** I have ever heard. I'm not sure that anyone in this organization knows what "intellectual" or "honesty" even mean because I sure as hell don't see any intellect or honesty from anyone upstairs.
This team sucks, plain and simple. There is no way around it, they are not good enough and sooner or later, the idiots upstairs are going to have to acknowledge it. I can only hope that when they do, it won't be too late. But I know better than to get too hung up on that happening.
I feel bad for Iginla. I won't begrudge him a single bit if he decides to pack his bags and pursue a cup elsewhere. He deserves better than the **** that happens here.

You mean Sean Monahan.
Barkov would be awesome. Gaudreau feeding the puck right to him in the slot for a snipe is something I can stand to watch for the next 15 years
And then we send out Reinhart and Arnold to shut things down.....Then you put out the second line and Sven feeds Janko, yeah it sounds nice to bad we will probably trade this years first rounder
And then we send out Reinhart and Arnold to shut things down.....
I can live with that team
No god no
Personally for centers Barkov > all others.
Agreed, but personally I dont think we suck enough to get Barkov.
Most drafts have him around 5th overall, right now we are tied for 6th with 3 other teams, if we move several players then it is very possible.
Maybe..I think he could go as high as 3 personally though. We shall see!
