If Calgary makes TJ Brodie available don’t we have to be making those calls?

Projected Cap hit in 2 years
Dahlin - $8m
Risto $5.2m
Brodie - $6.5m
Montour - $5.5m
McCabe - $2.2m
Pilut - $2.0m
Add in 7th at $1.5m
Total around $31m of say $90m avail.

I don't like Risto on 1st nor 2nd pairing, and is way too expensive for 3rd...so now they have a big hole to fill IMO.
I'd rather
- trade for a Colin Miller and see if he can be that stay at home defensively sound partner for Dahlin
-trade Risto out for help in the forward ranks

Dahlin-Miller
Pilut - Montour
McCabe - Nelson/Borgan
Nelson/Borgan

I'd be ok with that

I like how all Flames fans are saying goodbye Neal, as if that's going to be an easy task to get done.

But what u refuse to acknowledge/accept is that he didn’t do anything with all those chances

And stop blaming Sobotka
That argument doesn’t hold up, since he was getting all kinds of chances with him

Will he learn how to convert those chances?
Still tbd

Vlad Sobotka had more games under 30% xG% than he did games above 50% this year.

He had as many games below 20% than he did above 60%

It can’t be overstated how bad Sobotka was. If you don’t think he had a major effect on his line mates....idk

And they did last year ..

But Milwaukee Choked this time

Milwaukee could’ve took out Golden State but now they will beat the raptors easily

Then how do u explain all the chances u said Tage got in that 15game stretch?

If he wasn’t getting those chances,
makes sense to look at the line mates

But if he’s not finishing those chances,
then it’s on Tage
