As mentioned, Hubs is only 2 months older than Gaudreau. I wonder if they just cross out Gaudreau's name on the 8x10.5 contract and write in Huberdeau's and call it a day?

If it's true that he spends his summers here, it would great if he was in person at the Dome for the media availability and they announce an extension at the same time.

They're a Kadri away from possibly being able to avenge last season IMO.

Blue line is better. Forward group may be as good, but different.

I can’t believe (but actually I can) that people are somehow upset about this. Unreal.

This trade is a win even if we don’t resign them both. If we flip them for assets it’s still more assets than all the rumoured deals.

Huberdeau is elite. More so than Gaudreau and Tkachuk.

Getting a return for Huberdeau before the season would just add to the Florida deal. They could do the same with Weegar too and make it a full future haul.
Better have extensions in place

And you don’t even have to move Monahan, probably just Lucic to be able to fit in Kadri this year.
Oh those pairings are being rolled at even strength nonstop. Weegar also to PP1.

Those are “come at me, bro” pairings. Those are “Darryl can put any pairing over the boards at any point and not have to think twice” pairings.

Only way the Flames lose this deal if Huberdeau or Weegar walk for nothing next off-season but I don't see Treliving allowing that again.

The trade straight across is great. But if if these guys don’t sign the Tkachuk trade value is tied to selling Huberdeau as a rental next spring. I’d keep the cork in the champagne for now.

+++ asset management with time to figure it out
If they have the balls to trade them at the deadline when we are in a playoff spot and they are still un-signed, I will agree with this being a big win.

Do we think the Flames have learned from past mistakes is the question?

Yeah I can't see this as anything but a win.


Replacing Tkachuk@9M on a one year deal (told the team he won't re-sign) with Huberdeau@5.9M on a one year deal (maybe open to re-signing?). Better player on a cheaper deal with more re-signing potential, plus a top-pairing D, a first, and a prospect? No-brainer



If next year goes well and Huberdeau and Weegar slot in seamlessly, we've got $36M in cap space.


If next year goes poorly, we've got 2 excellent rentals to pawn off for 1sts and prospects.


The only angle where this is a bad move is tanking for Bedard, but realistically that was never an option anyway.

That is incredible.

Also yes - time to move Looch and Mony, and say hello to Kadri.

Also, 8 year deals for Mang, Huby, and Weegs please.
Weegar belongs on the top pair.

He's Calgary's new #1. By a lot.

Have to give tkachuk tons of credit
Told the team he wasn’t signing
Gave them an actual list of teams
Willing to sign with one of them

He gave the team a great gift on the way out.

I definitely wasn't aware Weegar was such a highly thought of D-man. He is getting so much hype around here.
