I’ll dumb it down though just so we’re crystal clear:

1. Andersson is gone - It’s not if it’s when, timing tricky for all the reasons people have highlighted. His value is going up which is great, will miss the guys swagger for sure as well. Mutual decision, leaving on good terms.

2. Kadri - controls his fate in the sense that his 13 ntc isn’t much but he’s on great terms with Craig and vice versa, Craig’s not going to send him to a dead franchise for him to play out the rest of the contract. Craig respects what he’s done for this team and his desire to rebuild here, but if trading him makes the Flames better than Kadri said he’d do what’s best for the team. There’s enough interest that I would consider him also probably moving.

3. Coleman - Few teams interested, playoff teams wanting exactly what he brings every night. Value is there, but likely the lowest percent chance to move, if he’s moved I’d bet on a homecoming in Texas for family reasons.


I think the main thing to takeaway here is that all 3 guys love the team and the city and have a connection to wanting to see it through. Speaks volumes for how Craig and ownership treat these guys, lord knows there’s not a lineup of superstars wanting to play in CGY.

I’d bet on 2/3 moving.
Thank you for the clarification and the notes.
