So thoughts on the Grabner trade? Did the trade set the bar high or low?

I think it's about where everyone thought it would be. That seems like a reasonable price for Grabner. I don't know anything about the prospect the Devils gave up, though.

I find it a bit strange that they traded within the division.

Okay, i'll try it a different way. Bennett has to be in the top 6 to be effective. He's not effective in the bottom 6.

I was thinking maybe swap Ferkland and Benny. Ferland needs to get back to his 3rd line style gritty pressure game and then think about contributing to scoring, and Bennett needs to play with our top line to realize he does have a scoring touch.

I don't know how he put up points in St. Louis and Washington. He's not really good at anything and only decent at a few things.

Good evening gents!

Just got home, going to start watching the game, prepare to start losing!!

I swear to (frank)ing Christ every time the Flames are winning and I tune in they start losing.

I was directly responsible for that first loss to Vegas. My juju is strong..

- Flamin_Irishmin

No way, man. I'm the bad luck charm. Just started listening to the game and they've already taken a penalty.

Grabner was going to get a second from somebody. If the Devils continue their slow downward spiral it may be the highest second round pick they could get. NYR's are selling the farm for the future so I don't think they care about the in division trade.

From what I’ve read the player isn’t planning on coming to the NHL anytime soon.

I thought a second rounder and a player not planning on coming to the NHL for a rental on a good contract and on pace for more than thirty goals, was a very fair price especially within the same devision.

If I was GG I wouldn't change a thing. Fuk the Einstein quote "the definition of insanity is to try the same thing over and over and expect different results". Fuk the Flames, I just want to prove that airhead wrong.

Just thought they'd at least ask for a little bit more from NJ.

I wish we could both cancel each other out but clearly that's not the (frank)ing case this season.

So this is all on you then you bastard!

He looks pretty good. If he can find a way to get a bit quicker I think he'll be a good one.
