Just when you think Brad Treliving got a 100% on his off-season transaction, he pull this? Maybe this is Brian Burke's move. AC might be right, a replacement for Bollig in the AHL or I am hoping not, put him on the 4th line once in a while.

I still think it is a waste of contract.

Well, that should balance out the Oilers signing Iginla.

His highest season total since 2013 is 7 points, and it was in the AHL.
Not even good enough for the Stockton Heat, don't really get it.
Oh well, minor move.

Sorry, not what I meant. I'd rather see them sign their own RFAs right now than sign guys like this.

Meh, big whoop.

Intimidation for the AHL club, nothing more.

No reason to get worked up about it.

They can do more than one thing at a time.

It's not like this would have been an intense negotiation. Call his agent, give him a number, and ask if he's interested. If he says yes, send him the paperwork. If he says no, move to the next meathead on your list.

Signing a two-way deal for a meaningless player has virtually no impact on contract negotiations with RFAs.

The AHL is a different league entirely, it's downright nasty at times. I have no problem with the team employing a neanderthal down there to protect our kids.

Yay! Really didn't think the Flames would sign him, but YAY.

In all seriousness, just an AHL tough guy. Loads of teams carry enforcers down there still.

Still, I wish it was Jagr.

I would agree, provided the guy isn't a negative influence on players we are developing.

Gadzic latched onto what he saw was the franchise meal ticket and was not a good influence. His latching on even took him to New Jersey after Hall was traded there.

I'm concerned he tries the same thing in stockton with one of the goalies or our swedish defencemen.

Relax...ever thought about perhaps Flames are getting some Intel on the Oilers? How come there are multiple whinners for each and every single thread lately? It almost sounds like you guys know more than the Flames management. If so, list your credentials. Didn't think so.

Or, you know, maybe they were friends.

McGrattan and Monahan say hello.

The AHL teams in our division have been a tad goonish the past couple years, so makes sense to have a guy like this down there since we have such a young group.
