I agree with most of what he's said as well, just don't get why it needed to be forced into the trade rumours thread out of nowhere

You’ve made pretty sad remarks about racial injustice before in other threads . You are garbage . I truly mean that.

Also painting the whole board with the racist cesspool comment because a couple dudes are pissing him off is weird and childish.

Sorry folks, but these are all terrible comments. This thread is about speculation and rumours. Comments were made about a specific player that I had already considered race to be a factor in, as it has been with other players labelled problems like Ho-Sang has. Crown Royal shared his perspective, which made total sense in the context. Trying to discredit it right away by calling it "woke" and "sjw" in pejorative ways is exactly the problem that has led hockey players and many others to step forward and share their stories and what they deal with in society. You don't get to just say you want to ignore it and talk about hockey, it's part of hockey that needs to be eradicated. Furthermore, I come to this board to hear different perspectives and that is what Crown is offering.

Well, I hate to be THAT guy that derails a thread, but...


What teams do you think are going to be after the next tier of wingers? I wonder if Calgary is done yet, or if they are going to their 'plan B' - assuming that they were in on Hall.

I'm gonna bet they are done. Or whoever else they sign will be league min contracts.

Could still see trades but I've felt for a while the only tinkering that gets done, gets done to the bottom 6

I hope they didn't put all their eggs in one basket. The forward group needs a shake up and I would be really dissatisfied if we don't see one.

Who’s the next player we want..... Toffoli? Treliving is going to surprise us now that the insanity over Hall is done.

Maybe if we all can just stay on topic.

I wouldn't mind Perry on a short term. He is a character player. He brings some winning intangibles that remind you of Matthew Tkachuk. The teams he is part of keep finding ways to beat the Flames, I think he would be a good influence on some of our younger guys!

The thing I'm concerned about is the teams that were rumored for Hall to start...Boston, Columbus, Nashville and whoever else I'm missing...all didn't get Hall. So they likely circle back on these next tier guys and create a bidding war.

I don't know if Calgary is a preferred destination over these other markets. Maybe Toffoli's familiarity with the Pacific makes him want to sign here? I don't know.

I think we're probably looking at depth signings and then addressing the top 6 through trade.

I'm looking forward to the next 24 hours now that Hall and Pietrangelo have found homes. Floodgates should open up now.

Like I already said, I largely agree with Crown (and you). I just don't care to have that discussion on CP. It's the same reason I mostly ignore the politics threads, it's not that I don't care about those issues, it's that I have zero interest getting into arguements on a hockey forum.

Granlund and Perry are my personal targets. Granlund really only if we somehow moved Ryan

I wouldn't mind a 1 year deal for Marleau on the 4th line. After we sign a top-sixer like Toffoli, of course.

Galchenyuk and Perry would be on my list on good cheap short-term deals.
