No.
I hope they go after Wilson and then get Coyle. A 3rd line of Bennett/Ferland Coyle Wilson would be pretty fun to watch.

I had no idea Don Maloney there, my favorite player growing up |
|
|

If there are any new D on the team this year they better be on our roster right now ...Hamonic will be better next year as it’s very normal for D to struggle their first year with a new team and it’s even harder for a D from the east to come play in the west ....Brodie should be made available for the right price but they shouldn’t sell low on him
I want to see 1-2 spots on D made available to some of the kids if they earn it . |

Maloney has been sitting quietly in the wings for the almost the last 2 years, probably knowing that Burke was wanting to move on. |

Personally, if we want want to improve the top 9 we need to acquire a top 6 centre.
I would hope the targets would be Zibby or RoR. Brodie wont be enough to get either of those, but if you add Kylington or Fox, I think the deal has legs.
Then as Peters said, he likes pairs & obviously Monahan/Gaudreau is set. Then you would have Zibby or RoR with Tkachuk. That moves Backlund & Frolik down to 3rd line which would be instant improvement. Peters can play mix & match with the Bennett, Ferland, Foo,Dube, Magpie & anyone else that produces based on performance throughout the year.
Then I would give Janko the 4th line & give him 10-12 minutes to let him continue to grow with the likes of Brouwer (if we have to keep him for 1 more year) & Lazar & Hathaway & anyone else that wins the job in training camp. That would instantly improve your 4th line as well. Just my opinion. |

Definite Arizona connection. Which is why I dont see them trading Bennett unless return is very good or part of a deal for a piece they really covet after what they saw happened when they traded Turris for Runblad & a 2nd round pick. |

Agree 100% with you. Then trade Backland once Janko is ready.

I don’t see Center as our weakness or need ....we need RW who can score ...and janko playing with Brouwer will hurt him not help
And Brodie can get you a top 6 RW ...D are overvalued compared to wingers
IMO I am done with the 3M line ...time to let tkachuk play on a different line ...let backs and frolik play with someone else as a shutdown line
I honestly liked seeing tkachuk play with Bennett and janko ...just try something different that the same old

that's the 'undervalued' type of ufa they'll be looking at.
not sure how much he has left in the tank. low risk, low reward move.
i'd recommend overpaying for kapanen instead. |

Maybe he won’t play out his contract ....but I don’t see him going anywhere anytime soon |

I’d overpay for him ....but to me that would be Stone and I think that’s a pretty big overpay ....kid plays in TO so he is overhyped ....everyone has players who excel in the ahl ...don’t mean he will d er be anything in the nhl

i think a trade that could help both teams is kapanen for r.andersson as the 2 main pieces. |

I am not saying trade him now. But Janko looks like he could end up being a good 3C which is where Backland will eventually end up.
Calgary needs another scoring line. Tkachuk is a start and maybe we could salvage Bennett as a RW, hell even try Tkachuk on RW.
But another C that drives play would do wonders for this team.
I think before Bennett gets written off you gotta give him a year playing with some good players.
The original pla was to have Bennett playing center. Did not happen so that kinda left a hole that I am not sure Janko can fill.
If Bennett had panned out as we had hoped do you think Calgary re-signs Backs? |

That’s a terrible deal for the flames ....I’d rather keep ras and let him play and trade Brodie for something better than kap |

ras is just a prospect at this point. same as kap.
what do you get for brodie at this point? package of futures or a 1 for 1ish type deal? |
