I mean through the trade channels, not so much UFA signings. Because we are unable to land a big name via a trade, we resort to compenasting with depth.

Broissoit to Vegas. Goalie spots going fast!! Cmon CGY get that #2!!

Derek Wills is on the Fan960 talking about how the Flames are still trying really hard to shake up the core via trade. I've never seen any reason to believe that Wills has inside information. But does anyone else?

That may come in an announcement from the team with all the players they pick up today. Treliving likely does a media availability on free agency today and that's when it may be announced.

I think it's common knowledge but as the old Treliving saying goes: "It takes two to make a deal and other teams aren't giving their best players away"

Goalies going fast!

Brian Elliot to TB. Another goalie spot gone.

One thing I know for sure is that around here we really appreciate a try hard. Glad Treliving is working the phones.

Wolf the back up lol

[Reggie Dunlop]

Flames probably need two goalies: A #2 and a #3.

Two really raw kids on the farm.

I'm sure he's shopping Monahan hard but I don't know what other big deals he would have on the burner. As for Gaudreau there's not many trade options outside of the teams on his NTC.

Especially if he tried hard, and it doesn't work out like he intended it, then it's not his fault.

I see Sportsnet has acquired the rights of Frank Serivalli for today at least as he is on their coverage. He really stepped his game up during the expansion draft

[Roof-Daddy]

Ullmark is still out there, that's who I want.

Ullmark = BIG
BIG = GOOD

[Monahammer]

Monahan+Valimaki+1st 2022 for Eichel
Lucic for Pettersson from Pitts

Sign Dube, Zadorov, Reimer, and maybe Ritchie or Mcginn.

We could have the cap space to make this work.

[Nelson]

Okay. The Flames need to get a backup goalie. They are going super fast. Ullmark! Ullmark! Ullmark!

[---Hatrick---]

Maybe they swoop in and bring Rittich back?

I'd be into an Ullmark signing, but I feel like he's going to come in north of $3M, which is a lot of cheddar for goalies I suppose.

Better hurry, Nashville is sniffing around him

Sounds like Nashville?
