That's the need they need to address the most if they aren't planning on rebuilding. I haven't seen that yet.

Jack Eichel, come on down!

Now make a Wizard type deal for Tarasenko and suddenly our right side will look pretty good.

Or have a cup winning coach and get guys who play his style of game. Coleman and Sutter seem like a match to me.

A RW of Tarasenko, Coleman in the top 6 is much more palpable.

If today ends up being *inserts whatever players* AND the acquisition of Jack Eichel, nothing else matters.
So until Jack Eichel is elsewhere, signing Coleman and Zadarov while acquiring a player like Jack Eichel? I like how the team is shaping up...

Yes, but this is a bit different, he’s very specific here l, not talking about a potential trade being discussed. Gotta think Jimmy would be connected to Coleman personally here. Played together in NJ for a season

So unless there is a big trade now, our top line is will continue to be an ongoing experiment on who to plugin on the right side

Coleman is not Brouwer or Neal. Those guys weren't able to skate. Coleman can. I don't hate the AAV, but I don't love the term, as he will probably slow down before his contract expires. I think it is a good add to what the Flames are building right now.

At that price, a slight overpay, but not that significant. I was worried about it being 5.5-6 million per year. 6 years is long though.

Like the player.
Don't mind the 6th year at all, as it kept the price under $5M (I mean sure, less term AND less money would be great, but that's not how it works)

Even a Pitlick-Backlund-Coleman as a shut down line.

He definitely shoots left, but I had some recollection of him playing right side in NJ.

Mangiapane is probably in the top 6
Coleman - Backlund - Pitlick is an elite 3rd line. Really, good.
