I still think kuzy was a cap dump the team should have gotten more for but the market is what it is.

Given how Lindholm has fallen off a cliff we could argue it's cap dump for cap dump. And we got Hunter and a 1st too!

Canucks fans also all say he's one of those locker room guys that brings an energy or positivity that is often very underrated when times are tough. There are intangibles there.

I’m not saying he is - I’m saying he can hold onto it.
Basically no Flame forwards have been able to do this for the last 20 years.
Huberdeau is the worst “superstar” I’ve ever seen with the puck on his stick.

The same Andersson who has fitness issues and has looked like a train wreck this season? Hopefully young guys aren't following his lead.

Reaching much on that opinion? His fitness issues are well behind him now and train wreck this season needs some expanding on.

At the time he was drafted. Before he came to the Flames.
He's totally changed that.
Certain posters want to ignore that he's in great shape and rehash old issues. Kinda like an ex-wife would do.

Ya the same Andersson who dialed in his fitness and nutrition after he turned pro and is likely why he is a top pairing Dman now and only a 2nd round pick back in his draft year.
Literally a guy who turned it around properly as a pro and you don’t want the young players to follow that lead. Truly bizarre take

There was someone on another forum who had it on good intel he scored horribly this season in fitness testing.
It honestly shows with how he is playing this year.

I couldn't even imagine the donkey brain that can't find the humour in what is possibly the best nick name of all time!! I challenge you to come up with a funnier nick name.

"someone on another forum" is certainly a credible source to serve as the basis to draw such a strong conclusion.

Agree with Jiri's response. It doesn't come across as very credible, sorry to say, but if you have something more solid, maybe it will be received better.

Except Lindholm is a rental.
Plus, you are looking at it after the fact.

Andersson has been on a 45 point pace and regularly doing top pairing minutes. Not sure I understand this "downturn"...? For a second round pick this guy has been nothing short of a home run.

I've also heard from very credible sources Raz has played through quite a few nagging injuries these past few years
So nothing to do with fitness and I'd love to see more guys with a pegged GAF meter like Raz.
Dude cares still even on a team that's still got too too much a country club atmosphere for this fans liking.
Glad Conroy is involved and pushing the right buttons and shuttling out the bad and getting some future potential coming
