Maybe Sportsnet will talk about them soon.
Low scoring Calgary Flames trap their way past Connor's high flying Oilers.

that's the quandry...who can you sell?

I think you'd have to get roster players back unless you are admitting to going into a rebuild...and that would not suit guys like McDavid or Draistl very well I would think...

Johnny has a 5 point lead on the field in even strength points
he also netted goal 193 tonight. pulling him even with Hakan Loob, highest (goal) scoring non-Canadian in Calgary Flames history (he took the same point scoring crown from Suter last game)

Who do they sell? Their only rentals would be Kane (NMC), Yam, JP (injured), Koskinen (MNTC and gets 1C money) and Macleod.

Funny thing is they’re so cap strapped for next year, they’ll have to make their roster worse. Haha

Was just asking, you are correct not much to sell but can’t see them buying a goalie at this point.

I’ll give them Monahan at full price plus a 6th for RNH at 50% retained.

That's a return of a two 3rds, a 5th, future considerations and 2.5 million in dead cap.

Absolute chills hearing the Ukrainian anthem at the Dome. Extremely powerful moment and a very nice touch.

i mean, you can try i suppose...if they are sellers, they are basically waiving the white flag anyways.

personally don't see a lot of a market for those guys, but if you don't think they are part of your long term plans, you might as well see what you can get on the market.

I honestly could see someone grabbing Kane, the Oilers took the initial hit after they signed him don’t think there would be much fallout
