Huge win tonight. Bonus oilers lose, Canucks lose, rest of Canada was golden.
How long til they put Zary at center? He was drafted as a center, eventually he’s going to play there. Maybe once they trade Lindholm.

Was a Season Ticket holder for 24 years then had to give them up as they required vaxx to go to games of which I didnt get. So I havent been to a game since early 2020. Not that I cant go now its just I havent wanted to spend my $$$ on this sh!tshow hahaha. I'll probably go to a Wrangler game before I go to a Flame game Who knows, maybe Conroy will do a better job on the re*****ing job & I'll pay the $$$ to watch them in the new building.

I was an original season tickets holder, had lower reds on the Flames goal line. 44 games a year, including the 4 exhibition games, $19 a seat. Got first option on the Allstar game, Canada Cup. I look forward to watching a game in the new digs.

It would take 50% retained and I'd still do it. He has to pick up his play to even attract takers for that IMO.

Still don’t see anyone taking him at 5.25 mil per. It’s going to cost picks and prospects to unload that contract. Flames can’t afford to give up picks, they should be trying to acquire more.
How about that throw in in the Tkachuk deal, Weegar is having himself a very good season.

Hate to say it, but we're stuck with that anchor of a contract...fu Treliving. Just embrace it & dont think of the salary when he plays on the 3rd line & 2nd power play where he belongs. Whether the Flames want to say it or not, semantics, retool....rebuild, its all the same rocknroll to me. He will just help us get to the cap floor anyways as we find our next stars on ELC's who are trying to prove themselves like Zary, Coronato & Wolf. Huberdeau is even more untradeable than Lucic was.
Perhaps, you get a scenario where Conroy eats 2.0 mill & trades Huberdeau for a guy like Meier in Jersey who is crapping the bed big time in Jersey & is also on his 1st year of an 8 year deal. Thats the only scenrio I possibly see. Conroy is not paying $5.25 mill for the next 7 years & eating that much dead cap space. Either that or the new CBA is coming up in a few years & with that a chance teams will get a chance to do some amnesty buyouts where they dont need to eat the cap space. That will be a Murray Edwards call on the though.

You forgot,Pospisil, Klapka, Pelletier, Poirier…….Flames have some nice young pieces. Our focus should be to get a good D prospect, a good center prospect and draft picks for Lindy, Hanifin, and Tanev

My dad had tickets since day 1 at the Corral and I ended up taking them over several years ago.
I was at that all star game, Canada Cup, the 80's BOA war's and of course the 3 cup appearances in 86, 89 and 04... those were the days!
Cant wait for the new building and our new re buiilt team by then should be awesome!
The top 8-10 guys in the 2024 draft look like good fits to our prospect pool.... Go Conny Go!

Marky activated Wolf sent down.... is this the week we finally move a goalie?

Yeah I think Pospi is a player in the middle lineup. Not sure he will be considered a star, they all cant be ...right? The other 3 I would like to see them play several games. Pelts will be interesting to see how he does. If he excels like Zary that would be sweet.

I think Flames should trade an extended Hanifin to the likes of the Bruins & try to get Lohrei back in the package, as you say, would be nice to get a almost NHL ready D in the pipeline & ready to go. Also I would love to see Hanifin open his mind & perhaps agree to an extension to go to the Islanders & we get Romanov back in the return package. In fact Romanov & their 2024 1st would make me a happy camper.

I remember going to the Calgary Cowboy games with my Dad at the Corral, some of those playoff games against the Nordiques were great.

Marky activated.... is this the week we move a goalie?

The way goalies are getting injured we may want to keep ours. Besides, I think if we move Marky will depend on him & will depend on what happens with all our UFA's & will probably happen at the draft or summer.

Weegar looks like a good trade/signing. Even if his play drops off at the end, the buyout won't be a problem. And I think you're right, even at half price, nobody's taking on Hubey's buyout proof contract. We're stuck with him.

Could be but Vladdy has been playing well and I think he's a good option for several teams right now.

I guess that would all hinge on return. If the return is similar to the underwhelming return we got for Z, keep him, we dont need cap space right now & it will give us time to see whether Markstrom wants to hang around for a retool/rebuild. He has a full NMC.

I can see them talking to Markstrom and asking. But remember he just had a kid. Cannot see uprooting his family over the winter to chase cups. He has other priorities. I can see them trading him next year at the TDL. Give him a year to mentor Wolf.

I think they trade Vlad when Marky is healthy.

Can anyone remember what happened the year they drafted Zary? Did Calgary not trade to draft down a couple positions?

Yes they traded down twice.

Broberg for Vladar?

Wherever the best deal is make the dang deal.
We gave up a 3rd for Vladdy so getting a 3rd back is acceptable for me.... maybe a 3rd with a conditional upgrade to a 2nd based on Vlad's performance with his new team.
Its time to make Wolf an everyday NHL'er!

Was at both the Allstar game and Canada cup. Hakan Loob and Mike Eaves sat behind me at the Allstar game they signed my program.

Pretty thankful that Lindholm turned down that deal. Maybe him and Markstrom will wave to join a team together.

I feel like some of the best deals might not come from teams like Toronto and Boston but more like Ottawa, Detroit, Buffalo, and Colombus.

Teams with lots of youth that everyone expected to turn the corner but have not found success.

Markstrom looked dialed in last night, maybe we should play his former teams more often.
