We have a very good top 6 but not much depth that can step in and play at a playoff level right away.


I feel like the only trade that could be made would be moving an Adam fox for a winger but that's probably not meeting the current asking prices.
it's very hard to know what the Flames have in Andersson as they have barely given him the opportunity to get his feet wet. I'd much rather watch Stone with Brodie and then have Kulak and Andersson as the 3rd pairing. We could've saved our assets on Hamonic and probably be in a very similar place in the standings.

Let me be clear, he may we'll end up in Stockton to start. But IMO he will be an NHLer. And he has a good chance of it next year.

And yes, Mike F, I said Dube will be a roster player. As I am not the GM, it's pretty obvious that it's just my opinion.
I came away with the same impression of Dube. He's my dark horse to make the team next year.

hamonic has been fine it just sucks that we paid a Porsche price tag for an F150 knowing he was an F150 all along

Would love to see andersson in the next 10 games to see what we have

I think Brodie needs to keep playing thru this.

Don't understand the hate .i read thru most of this thread and all the bashing but don't see solutions ...... I want to see Andersson here too and wider what the hesitation is all about in getting him up.

He's better than Bart but yet Glen seems loyal to guys that don't contribute to this team. Is Brad telling him this is your roster, work with it?

Anyway, Brodie to me does more good than harm. I'd be tempted to pull a Scotty Bowman on him and make him a forward as I think he'd be awesome.
