That's the second option I've been quietly hoping for, behind the obvious best case of Brouwer getting chosen. Save the Flames from an anchor contract and harm a division rival in the process.

I do hope you are right as I really think Stone was the main reason we made it to the playoffs (complemented of course by addition by deletion - Widedog)

There are no guarantees, but this is Stone's Twitter profile image...




His wife is from Calgary and they have infant twins, so being close to her family will likely have a lot of appeal for them.

Notice how they don't have the flags or piping shown for either jersey in the picture...

So what are the Vegas dates again? Jersey release tomorrow. When do they announce who they've selected along with the trades?

Maybe not the right thread for this, but it looks like VGK is going to end up miles ahead of the Canucks organizationally by the end of the week.
