The Flames have great success with 4th rounders.

And the Canucks don't need to win anything. Go Preds.

Vancouver Canucks acquire:
Elias Lindholm

Calgary Flames acquire:

Andrei Kuzmenko
Hunter Brzustewicz
Joni Jurmo
2024 first round pick
Conditional 2024 fourth round pick

"Flames general manager Craig Conroy confirmed that the conditional fourth-round pick turns into a third-round pick if the Canucks make the Western Conference Final. He also confirmed that the Flames will not retain salary on Lindholm."

Maybe it's me getting older because I have never ever cheered for another Canadian team but this season I find myself cheering for Vancouver.

I'll never cheer for edmonton ever but Vancouver has a pretty likeable team. Unlike their burrows and Kesler days.

Who cares these team are playing for the right to be pounded in round 3

I like what we got we got from the Lindholm trade already, I don't really care about that conditional 4th rounder

Miller passes out of the zone twice with the empty net and a ton of pressure.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

[dino7c]

[Paulie Walnuts]

Looking 5 years back, as an arbitrary date, you won’t see much difference between 3rd and 4th rounders making any dent in the NHL.

Yay. More rest for the Oilers while these guys most likely go 7. Cant believe some of you are cheering for that.

Worst overall series in the first round. Two worst two teams. Comparing this to the Colorado-Jets series, this is just total scramble mode most of the time. The Nucks aren't built for the playoffs at all.

[Chi-Town Hustler]

They gonna riot? Or is that later

Go Flams

[MillerTime GFG]

52 SOG combined in last 3 games for the Canucks. They are pretenders.

[Manhattanboy]

Third period was good hockey.

They will get stale. Or maybe LA wakes up.
