2018/2019 Trade Speculation and Rumors

[14]

They are together on a Golf trip this weekend. Smith and Stamkos along with 4 other NHL'rs.

He rarely jokes about Flame intel. Very interesting.

4M? Lol it will cost more than that

If Neal signs in Calgary it will be nothing more than a coincidence that Commodore also happened to tweet this out. Dude is obviously just making stuff up for laughs -- and it works, he's hilarious.

Neal wanted to give his buddy Commie the breaking news first. What a nice guy.

Haha I love it, he’s trolling either way.

Didn't he teased about Justin Williams coming to Calgary when he was an UFA? I would be good with Neal only if it is good term and AAV. Much better than Maroon

Hopefully Neal spilled the beans when they all were hammered and Commie tweeted it out.

[ComixZone]

Pinder & Boomer have retweeted this now...

Commie looks like he was having a good time hahah

Ok, let's humour ourselves here. If Neal comes, does Frolik get traded?

Gaudreau-Monahan-Lindholm/Neal
Tkachuk-Jankowski-Neal/Lindholm
Bennett-Backlund-Ryan
Mangiapane-Czarnik-Foo

Frolik and Stone or Kulak for picks, LD or goalie?

[Ozy_Flame]

Frolik and Stone for picks if we can sign Neal ... Do we really need anything else at that point? We could probably fill gaps internally.

[Beninho]

Neal would love life with Johnny and Mony, gotta think out of all the situations out there the Flames are a good one for him.

Just send Brouwer packing...

Gaudreau - Monahan - Czarnik (Piggy back the kid with the big guns)
Tkachuk - Lindholm - Foo (Piggy back the other kid with these two)
J. Neal - Backlund - D. Ryan
Bennett - Jankowski - Frolik

Balance the lines. Roll all 4.

I dunno. So many options it's hard to make lines. Just feels "right" though, without Brouwer and with another legit scoring threat.

I think if Neal comes here, we will have way too many bodies. Wonder what pick we can get for frolik?

[Calgary4LIfe]

I doubt Frolik would get traded. Even if he gets pushed down to the 4th line, he offers fantastic forechecking and reliability in all zones with some offence. Either way, even with a Neal signing, I can't see the Flames moving on from Frolik.

[JurassicTunga12]

This guy is probably just as unreliable as Commie. In fact, I bet he is just going off of Commie's tweet haha, but hey

Believe this deal is almost done. Been in the works for quite a while now but looks like Neal is headed to the #Flames. Should know more tomorrow.

Interesting, from looking at his tweets he got the Bernier and Pirri signings right. Only been active the last few days after a year of inactivity. Hmm

[Cantrader]

If we get Neal and goaltending stays up, Playoff year..
