And Pospisil is a great fit for the Devil’s needs. They need someone to play a checking role in the 3rd line who can play with skilled guys like Mercer and Palat. They need to replace Macleod. They want to get tougher to play against. They put a premium in team speed. And Fitzgerald has said he’s looking for guys in the 23-25 age range. Pospisil checks almost every box - and he checks all of them if he can play C.
The Fitzegerald quote could easily be attributed to Conroy as well. I think the Flames would love to keep him for the same reasons.

He has value, so the return needs to be there.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
