Interested if fans would be happier with the Flyers type offseason for the Flames?
Fletcher made things happen this summer.
In: Ellis, Atkinson, Ristolinen
Out: Myers, Patrick, Voracek, Gostisbhere, Hagg, 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 7th
Lots of movement for the Flyers but they paid a pretty penny to make those moves. Risto only has a year left on his deal, where Ellis is signed until he is 36. They gave up futures and picks for these guys.
End of the day the Flyers went out and got stuff done. Would Flames fans be equally happy if they made comparable moves? The Reinhart trade, swap Monahan/Backlund for a comparable questionable contract, futures for a player with one year left on their contract?
It is the tale of 2 GM’s one was incredibly active but I am not sure many if any of those moves will work out, the other hasn’t done anything.
I find myself wanting change because I don’t believe we can run it back with this core again. I hope Treliving’s patience pays off but this team needs more than free agents moving in and out
