Elliott's stats are pretty great, never been the true number one but even a .913 save percentage will make the flames so much better have a save percentage of .891 as a team is just gross. Plus we get tkachuk at 6 instead of giving it away for bishop... Very happy with the flames right now

I wonder if he stays on the roster for long? Maybe 2 2nds + Elliot for Fleury?

Not happening! Rutherford didn't want to do this deal, how else do you explain 6oa?

Not mad at all. I was worried you'd get Bishop.

Plus we got Puljuju

I think the Battle of Alberta is about to resume normal duties. Both teams are stacked going forward. I still want a top6 winger to start opening day, but otherwise all is well.

Been lots of talk of Hartnell, would love to get Kirby Rychel added to that.

I think Tres shout out to Rutherford was a little "F U" knowing he had a cheap deal for Elliott in his back pocket

They are gonna trade one of their kids for D. I still see them making a run at St Lou

We shall see if Chia has the testicular fortitude to pull a deal... (and if Katz lets him).

Honestly someone like Yak would be perfect, assuming it is relatively cheap. Id do Spoon and a 2nd for him.

Apparently Yakupovs value is as low as a 3rd rounder right now

Can someone remind me of some of the trade offers we were suggesting to move up to #4 to get Matthew Tkachuk?
I was getting so used to accepting we'd be drafting Alex Nylander I'm still in shock right now

I was worried we would get Bishop after it came out he wants 7x7M

Flames upgraded their goaltending for about 1/4 of what Hiller/Ramo were making and it only cost them a 2nd

Anyone willing to resign Hudler for cheap, say 3.5m for 2-3 yrs, to play 2nd line RW and eventually slide down to the 3rd? Or, how do they fix the hole, overpay for Okposo bc he fills a need better?

It's good to finally have a goalie under contract. A cheap cap hit at that. But I really hate the trading of the 35Th overall. If you don't draft Hunter Smiths, there's some really good players at that range.

I'm happy we didn't eat an ugly Bob type contract, but I'm thinking they should have waited until after the draft.
