I'm not a guy who wants to see Sven dealt, but I could understand why if Ritchie was the end game.

If management thinks Gaudreau is expandable, the most exciting prospect the flames have had since the 80's, then we are so, so, so, so, so, so, so, ####ed.

He has proven this year that his ceiling is higher than any prospect in this draft.

Literally the most exciting thing the Flames have going for them for the next 5 years is Gaudreau.
