Default Garbage Bag Day - 2013

Flames are cleaning out their lockers today:
So far,

Pat Steinberg ‏@Fan960Steinberg 1h
Steve Begin doesn't know if he'll be back with the #Flames next season, but he made it pretty clear he'd love the chance.

Pat Steinberg ‏@Fan960Steinberg 48m
"You want to be wanted" is the quote Cory Sarich gave us when asked if being in Calgary was still his desire. #Flames

Roger Millions ‏@RogMillions 1h
Tj Brodie has accepted an offer. From Team Canada to play at World Championships in Stockholm. #Flames.

Pat Steinberg ‏@Fan960Steinberg 36s
Backlund says he's off to the World's to play for Sweden if he gets the all clear from #Flames doctors.

NM, i see you edited it.

Not sure what the Sarich quote means? Did they say they did not want him? or did they say they want him for the rebuild?

Pretty sure he's referring to the number of times he was sat by Hartley. Don't think those guys saw eye to eye...recall that less then a year ago, Feaster signed him for 2 years. Likely the only reason he was on the team, post trade deadline was the fact that he wasn't a rental.

The only truly physical defenseman we have right now, hope his hip problem stays away, and he stays.

He's actually the only true physical player on the team right now not including guys who don't play more than 5 minutes a game. Quite the team Feaster has constructed - very tough to play against.

#Flames forward Curtis Glencross the first guy to hint strongly towards Kiprusoff not coming back.

Glad Brodie got an invite for Team Canada. The kid's a real stud.

Agreed.
Dismantled the 3rd line with his "I'll say and anything anti-D Sutter to distance myself from him in the first year I have the job" by getting away from the "big and slow" and getting, supposedly, "faster and more skilled".

So the 4th line, not cut out for that style, had to become that the 3rd energy line while still being the 4th line (in skill and role) when it came to those bigger teams.

Here's what Glencross said re: Kiprusoff via @SUNGilbertson “Just talking to him, I don't think he'll be back but we're all hoping he is.”

Does Brian McGrattan want to be back with #Flames? You bet. "I never wanted to leave in the first place ... It was awesome coming back."

not sure if Cundari has a chance of making the team but his physical presence could make up for the loss of SArich ...Sarich is/was a warrior and I thank him for that but his time has passed and we need more defenceman like Brodie, Cundari and Giordano in the future.

Looking forward to the Draft and months to come ....keep wondering if itll be worth having Cervenka back .....training camp next year will be very interesting to say the least.

Sven Baertschi is disappointed he can't play for Switzerland at the World's, but groin injury suffered in Nashville will prevent it. #Flames

Pat Steinberg ‏@Fan960Steinberg 5m
Lee Stempniak won't play for Team USA at the World's because of a family commitment. #Flames

That's ok, Sven. Sean Monahan will be there to help you out!

For all that is holy tie this guy up for 2-3 years. Can't just have a team of flashy midgets with barely any NHL-experience skating around.

Cory Sarich, even though Hartley doesn't want you, it's clear that management, a lot of the fans, and probably a lot of the roster, does want you to play in Calgary.
