The Flame needs to go for it. They have a top coach, an elite goalie, a potential Hart candidate in Gaudreau and another star winger in Tkachuk. Hate not having a first and I've been critical of Treliving bleeding picks but this is a huge pickup and if we're not going for it when do we?

He played all but 2 seasons in the west. In Vancouver 2 years ago he was PPG (in a short sample).

Yeah Toffoli's contract, when he signed it, was bizarrely reasonable. There wasn't an excess of years or dollars. It was reasonable.

Hopefully this fixes the depth scoring. That's a good contract - Hamonic's acquisition cost was expensive in large measure to having what was widely scene as a bargain contract. I think Toffoli has a really good contract as well.


With the entire Backlund line heating up and playing better, if the Flames can start getting regular production from what I assume will be the Dube-Monahan-Toffoli line, this team is going to be incredibly difficult to defence against.


Losing a 1st always hurts, and I do believe Heinemen will be a player - pretty nice floor with questionable ceiling on him - but this makes sense and acquires much needed goal scoring ability in the 'bottom 6' (or middle six).


Also, I really like Ritchie's non-stop motor and willingness to just do whatever it takes on every shift, but Flames needed an upgrade there desperately, and Pitlick was worse than Ritchie as he didn't seem to offer much of anything at all. Hopefully Toffoli can settle-in quickly and can start to develop some chemistry right away. At least he is familiar with Darryl's system and expectations, so it should be a bit easier of a transition.

So, you could look at it like...
Sam Bennett, Flames 2022 1st, 4th, and 6th round picks and Flames 2023 5th round pick

for

Tyler Toffoli and Panthers 2022 2nd round pick

Exactly. The dude won a cup on a Darryl Sutter coached western conference team.

I wanted Flames to sign him when he was a free agent. Glad we finally got him!

Yeah. Still doubting he’s got the game for it in the tougher defensively west.

sorry quotes aren't embedding. I suppose if its any further consolation 21 of those 28 goals were against the West (although not exactly the creme de la creme- and alot of them were against us LOL)

Mid-thread pause to celebrate two news breakers here on CP.

FlamesAreOne --> teased the news a good while before this trade broke.

N-E-B --> broke the return well before Friedman/anyone else.

Will be interesting to see what Darryl does with the lines, excellent news for Monahan, hes going to get a legit winger to play with!

Don't forget - we still have Florida's 2nd from the Bennett trade, so we still can make a splash in the 2nd round this year.
