I don’t think Johnny is worth any more than Landeskog. Landeskog is close to a point per game player, but he also has other aspects to his game that Johnny does not.

I would prefer a 7 x7 for John.

Awesome, sets the stage for Johnny

Johnny’s deal should be similar.

We’ll forward your preference to Bradley.

I felt the same.

Blues were rumoured to go hard after Landeskog, now that he's gone, will they turn all attention to Tkachuk?

Could be. With Schwartz gone and Landeskog off the table, Armstrong will be looking for a top-line LW.

I’m not in the in crowd.

This is true, but Landeskog desperately wanted to return to Colorado, and was willing to take a discount to do so.

If Johnny was willing to take a discount, he’d likely be already signed.

Remember, he couldn't sign until July 28, because he has a year left on his contract. So no, he wouldn't already be signed.

True, but there are lots of contracts announced as agreed to that haven’t been signed yet.

Announced by the Flames? They've never worked that way in the past. Should they start now?

It's a joke. Lindholm was reported to have been important for the signing of Markstrom, kind of a "Swedish friendly" ambassador for the team.

It's teasing our Swede for failing to recruit another Swede.

[DeluxeMoustache]

^ Got it. Thanks

[Robbob]

I think this is good news for the Flames. The Gaudreau camp wanted to see what sort of contract Landeskog signed.

We giggled about the Oilers term and AAV on Zach Hyman, we are going to look stupid. Blake Coleman is a decent player, he isn’t as good as Zach Hyman.

I like Landeskog but I also think if he didn't play with MacKinnon and Rantanen he'd be getting a few million less than this.

Coleman is better and more versatile than Hyman.
