Do you think Broberg and Bourgault are 1st round pick assets really? Was Jusso Valimaki a 1st round pick asset when we put him on waivers?

Well considering they’re developing prospects with very solid chances of becoming NHL regulars, I would say yes.

Man, could you imagine being Jonathan Huberdeau and leaving sunny Florida to sign long-term in Calgary only to have your worst offensive season ever, followed by this mass exodus? 
Well I guess we can write off Pelletier and Cornato, right?
Which one of the Oilers prospects missed an entire season or half of the 2021-22 season because of injuries? Which one of them is 23 years old( Like Valimaki was last year)?
Here comes the Sutter excuses....
He wants out because Sutter was fired. I'm hearing from a family friend of Toffoli that he was not happy with the way a lot of the team turned on Sutter. Toffoli loved Sutter.
Toffoli is all about winning and enjoyed how hard Sutter pushes players to perform. It seems the turning point was bringing Kadri and Huberdeau into the fold, as both of those players refused to play hard for the coach.

Toffoli is a bit of a victim of circumstance here. If we had a better team then nobody would mind re-signing him to a reasonable contract but with what needs to happen with this franchise moving forward he should be one of the first to go. I respect him for not quitting like a lot of so called other leaders but it's time for him to go. Hopefully he can win another cup somewhere else.

At least he didn't do it on a team friendly dealMan, could you imagine being Jonathan Huberdeau and leaving sunny Florida to sign long-term in Calgary only to have your worst offensive season ever, followed by this mass exodus?
We've already put our hopes on Florida drowning in the standings. Just when you think a top-12 selection is locked, that pick falls to 31, just like that. I for one won't put my hopes up on this scenario!
No, Pelletier and Coronato have both gotten better and are worth a 1st. I'm just saying it's silly to say someone is worth a 1st because they were drafted there. Neither of those guys for Edmonton are worth a 1st. I'd take McLeod ahead of either of them and he was drafted with a 3rd round pick.
For Calgary Zary isn't worth a 1st anymore. Wolf is worth more than a 1st and was drafted with a 7th.

Trying to dump 2 cap dump for useful players.
Toffoli can't sign his extension until July 1st, or i believe there's a way he can sign it after he's dealt to Toronto and before July 1st
There's 10.5 million reasons he's probably ok with itMan, could you imagine being Jonathan Huberdeau and leaving sunny Florida to sign long-term in Calgary only to have your worst offensive season ever, followed by this mass exodus?

I've wanted Tofolli in TO for a long time. I want to Treleive. I have a feeling other teams will easily outbid us though, the guy score 34g on a pretty tepid offence after all.
Maybe Lou makes a big run at him. Would look awfully nice on a PP with Barzal, Horvat, Nelson and Dobson/Pulock.

TLDR;
I thought Sutter was the sand in the Flames vaseline? and Tree is gone to the Leafs to bring this happiness there. So it’s not coaching or management.

You feel this way because this exact scenario is going to play out once Edmonton stops being competitive in the post McDrai era. Players just don't want to live in Canada imo. It used to be only Americans which didn't want to live up here, but even Canadians and Europeans now prefer US markets.
Yamamoto and Ceci are terrible pieces. 24 1st, 25 2nd and Bourgeault for Toffoli.

These Flames threads for those that don’t want to read through them:
Oiler fans:
Shaq/Kobe highlights flaming Calgary.
Calgary fans:
Majority have been calling for a proper rebuild for almost a decade.
These players are all doing this team a solid by asking out. Especially guys like Toffoli, Lindholm, Backlund and Hanifin; their values have never been higher over the past few years.

I have seen a lot of bad offers in this thread.... but yikes. This one takes the cake,
Well done! Thanks for the laugh. Getting younger with 30 year old in Pageau who has hit 20 goals once and never 50 points. I guess throwing in 33 year old Bailey is just a sweetener. Teams are lining up for a guy who can't hit 10 goals in a season.
Bravo!

Who knew that Habs fans would be so invested in Florida's draft position for potentially 3 consecutive years.
Fla next year is the key one I think. Their 2024 pick belongs Philly (the Giroux trade). It is top 10 protected so if it is top 10 Fla keeps pick, Philly gets Fla 2025 pick and mtl gets Flames 2025 unless it is no 1 overall. Is it likely -no but with this Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde team who knows. Do we get 2022 Presidents cup winners, the 2023 team that needed Pittsburgh to lose to Hawks to sneak in or the 2023 playoff panthers? Could there be a Finals hangover? what Bob do we get next yr.
2025 Panthers pick to Calgary is lottery protected so I think Calgary gets it unless Panthers win lottery. Could it still be a high pick? Possibly, Panthers will have a lot of turnover. for the 2024-25 season they currently have only 6 skaters under contract? prospect pool and picks have all been traded away - Both Flames and Cats could suck in 2025- again possible.
Moral of story when acquiring draft picks its nice to acquire them 2+ years in the future- gives the team time to collapse.
