Flames signed Tanner Glass.
Well that takes the sting off the Jagr signing
I can't believe the guy keeps getting NHL jobs...
Flames signed Tanner Glass.
The odd thing for me is PIT hasn't really been stacked at d for years, but for some reason Pouilot's name has been out there for a couple of years.Looks like Pouliot is headed in the Brandon Gormley direction. Might be a nice pick up for the Nucks, super low risk for them.
Why didn't we get GlassHow long til we get why didn't we get d Pouliot?
This might be the worse take of year.
True because those two are completely comparable.Cant make fun of the Flames signing Glass yet as Chiarelli could still sign Kelly

Still young and could turn out though

He was waived for purpose of assignment to Bakersfield, so I assume he's down there now.Does anyone know if Fayne was assigned to the AHL?

Comparable because neither are NHLers. Both could actually contend for worst forward in the NHL if both made it. Here is Kellys effects on his teammates last year, this is one of the ugliest things ive seen in a while. I was ok with bringing Kelly in for a PTO so Chiarelli could slap him on the back one more time for olds sake before Kelly sets off into the sunset. But the fact we are sitting here one day before the season starts and Kelly is still here is scary. Worst is, weve seen Kelly in preseason games and hes not good. Well he hasnt been atrocious, this is a vet playing for his NHL career and hes been below average, it will only get worse for here on out
Gionta is the guy I would approach if the team comes out of the gate slowly. He seems to have turned his focus to the Olympic team to rebuild his worth. I think he has a skill set that would match up well with the Oilers.If Winnik isn't getting signed, I'd prefer him to Kelly without the slightest bit of hesitation, they provide many of the same elements Winnik is just better all around.
Assuming all unsigned guys at this point are coming for dirt cheap on 1 year deals my order of preference would be: 1. Gionta, 2. Franson, 3. Winnik. I'd pass on everyone else including Iginla and Kelly, those 3 guys above are the only people I see unsigned that I believe could actually help our team and add an element we are lacking in.

I think the only reason he's looking at AHL deals only is that's his way into the Olympics. With that being said if Olympics were off the table I don't think he'd come out West anyway.I think I read somewhere that Gionta has no desire to leave out East. Even to the point he was looking at AHL deals only.
