Okay.

 

[Boomstick]

Wow. I hope this works out for us. Welcome to Calgary, Toffoli.

 

[Kahvi]

I can live with this. Cap is gonna be a problem next year, need to get rid of Lucic and/or Monahan

 

[DCDM]

Yummy. I like this.

 

[Siignal]

I love it. We managed to upgrade without a king's ransom and can avoid the tdl noise to come. Well done Treliving & co

 

[Potty John]

A lot better than I expected we would give up.

 

[Some Other Flame]

Fair deal.

@ Habs fans thinking they were getting Pelletier and a first.

I actually like Heinemann but the Flames already have a billion left wingers

 

[Hector Salamanca]

Sad Return wow.

 

[Mobiandi]

Why on earth did the Habs really want Heineman

 

[super6646]

YIKES!!!!

 

[Baksfamous112]

I’m more than ok with the deal. As long as we got a 1st plus.

thoughts on emil heineman from Calgary fans?

 

[Nanuuk]

Way to go Tre! I can live with the price even if we'll be short a few draft picks this year.

 

[JurassicTunga]

Welcome Toffoli!

 

[Bounces R Way]

I think it's OK. Would have preferred using that 1st to get an impact rental at the deadline, but there's something to be said about getting it done early. Treliving did not want to be left without a dance partner again this year.

Least TT can shoot and is a RHS. Those two boxes checked. Very reasonable cap hit. His speed is concerning, especially if they're looking to play him with Monahan.

Was part of the Bennett trade so I dont think many Flames fans ever even saw him play. Less than a year within the organisation

 

[JurassicTunga]

1st is top ten protected according to Seravalli.

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

I like this trade. Sucks to give up a 1st but if this works out, that pick will be a low one.

 

[Kahvi]

So simplifying this, Flames got 2nd and Toffoli for Bennett and 1st. And lost 4th and 5th round picks for nothing. Doesn't look that good

Assuming Treliving took Zary/Pelletier/Coronado off the table given there was already a first heading their way it’s possible they saw him as the best of our remaining prospects.

He’s having a fantastic year maybe they see something they like

Anyway I’m fine with this trade. The first pick should be in the 20-32 range and dumping Pitlick + his salary is double nice because of A) the cap and B) still leaves room to call up Philips

Well the Bennett trade never looked very good to begin with.

This Toffoli trade is... probably fair value. Will be interesting to see what happens to his numbers. Don't see him taking Coleman's spot on the 2nd line but maybe he gets some PP2 time?

 

[Rubi]

@super6646 you were right about Monahan. I was wrong.

 

[Rubi]

I'm happy with this. Hate giving up a 1st but I doubt it will be a very high 1st.

And our cap situation this offseason when we need to re-sign Kylington, Mangiapane, Gaudreau, Tkachuk...
