It's like the actual clip of the hit disappeared.

I don't see it any other way.

No actress in her right mind would be staring down the barrel of another 8 years there and saying "yes please"

Not a chance in hell.

I could see the 1 year to close it out with connor and make their exodus together, on the condition of an overpay.

Oh god it's really going to happen isn't it? Dissentowner may be right all along. Toronto at least gets him out of the West but I would have rather he gone to an american team because the Leafs stuff will be even more unbearable but at least the Oilers will go back to their rightful place of being a dumpster fire.

It would be both the greatest thing to happen (screwing Edmonton) and the absolute worst thing to happen (returning Toronto to center of the universe prominence) all at once.

Unless they both somehow end up in Utah.

Why would he wear an Oilers jersey when he doesn't have to (informal skate)?

Should've worn a generic jersey.... just to make the Oilers fans apoplectic.

I was looking at this “captains’ skate” but couldn’t see Draisatl.

And, as TSN has reminded us all summer, Matthews is the captain!

The best will be when the Leafs still can't win a cup with both of them

I do think hockey at some point is going to need to make a course correction.

This isnt Basketball. You cant win with like 4 guys making most of the money and then a bunch of scrubs.

Mcdavid's from the area and spends his summers there, got married there. "Mcdavid to Toronto" has been discussed since he was drafted. No different than the Makar to Calgary pumpers

A little different because Dissentowner has been so confident based on his source. I dont think anyone here ACTUALLY has any source saying makar is coming here with any certainty

I saw some Twitter buzz that Stutzle changed agents which is somewhat bizarre since he is one year into an 8 year extension. If Draisaitl doesn’t stay in Edmonton I could see him wanting to team with his German buddy but certainly not in Ottawa. I wonder if a team like SJ or Anaheim could pull a deal for Stutzle (who would force a trade) then sign Draisaitl next summer?

Except McDavid is approaching UFA, Toronto isn't a poorly regarded destination and Toronto will pay the man. Plus there's precedent for stars wanting to go back to hometown Toronto much more than Calgary. Tavares, being the prime example, but Gio wanted to go there was well, same for a few other guys.

Meh I'd come home to Calgary for the right situation. It's a great city. But I 100% wouldn't do it to go work for Uncle Murray. We're hamstrung until we get a real owner who wants to build a great organization with his own cashflow.

So yeah...as fans we need to stop making it about the city, and make it about ownership and leadership.

An idea: The guy could build a practice facility and academy with a giant Flames symbol on the top of it, office space, field house, media, training and 4 rinks that would be FULL year round. I mean I guess it's good business to just break even for over a decade waiting to bilk tax payers to increase the capital value of your business and reap your share of expansion fees, but it doesn't exactly build market share or loyalty from your customers.

Flames fans need to visit these places and realize it's not the fans, the city, the climate, or any other bs excuse:
