Why? Why is this such a Calgary Flames thing to do?
Gabe Perreault got signed a couple of days ago- he's making his debut tonight. The Rangers are 2 points out of it. He's playing on a line with Miller and Lafreniere.
They're both from the same draft year. Suniev is 6 months older and a bigger player than Perreault.
Like FFS- put your prospect in a position to succeed. This is a goal-starved team and the one thing this kid can do is put the puck in the net.

Exactly correct. I guarantee the first couple games he suits up he looks better than a handful of the current players on the team. 100%. Backlund’s 25% FO% and 3 muffin shots from the blue line and floating around in 18mins of icetime can maybe take a bit of a backseat if we are in a playoff race, need a hungry young kid all jacked up to play and who has a wicked shot. Throw him in and watch him outplay a few of these comfortable guys.
