Signing Markstrom to a six year deal was a terrible mistake. We have an NHL ready goalie in Wolf. The Flames are not going to be contenders for the next three seasons, so we're essentially paying Markstrom eighteen million dollars for nothing. We might get lucky and move him at the trade deadline in the spring of 2026, but there is just no getting out of this contract until then.
Same goes for Kadri and Huberdeau. Those two bums are going to get paid to float for the entirety of their contracts. The Flames are too cheap to retain salary. We're going nowhere fast.
