			I guess the nice thing was that Brett Ritchie was moved to make sure there was space for Duehr according to Tre

Is the air as thick with smog up on your throne as it appears from down here with the rest of reality? Take your virtue signaling BS and throw it in the garbage. If you're fan and you're not frustrated with the team this season, you're not a true fan. This trade does not instill confidence in any playoff hopes in which we actually turn things around. Most normal people can see that.
 
It would take a true Darryl Sutter truculence solider to think this is the kind of trade that gets up to close that hugely widening gap to squeak into the playoffs. Absolute blinders while enjoying an enema.

			Tree really alluded to a Coronato signing in the presser. I'm 100 percent convinced he's signing.

 It's done.  Like done done.   Like Elvis left the building, done.  The stubbornness of this management to see things for what they are is holding this team back.

Dedication to boring Sutter hockey plus current managements (whomever is in charge?) total lack of foresight plus the never ending and ongoing facility issues might = the Houston Flames. I for one will not pay what they are asking to watch hockey with zero entertainment value and little or no hope. Have had season's since the 04 run...might be time to reinvest that money elsewhere.

			Sounds like they switched gears and looked at trading for future assets and helping the long term.

If Sutter can motivate.
 
We may have our Lucic replacement next year. One or two tough guys help the Eatbreads and Pelts on the team stand a little taller!
 
Agree with comments that he is an ideal 4th liner with some skill. If you can increase his motor and add a guy like Duerr on his other wing. You probably have a line than contribute decent offense.
 
Mackey was never going to work in Calgary with Sutter as HC. Stecher at least can play a 6D spot and eat popcorn as a 7D without much trouble. Friendship with Tanev is a bonus.

Maybe a 5 second rule before hitting submit?
 
Just a suggestion.

			Flames play the Ducks March 10. I wonder if Stecher unloads on Zegras for the comments he made a few weeks ago.AZ hasn't played Anaheim since then.

Sorry, no. I stand by what I said.
 
This trade is absolutely useless and we'll wonder why it happened just as much in middle of April as we are now.

If the latest the frozen 4 goes is April 6, then If Harvard wins it all he could get into 3 games to close out the season (plus playoffs is wierd things happen). I think it is almost certain we see him this year since the NHL season started later.

			I wonder how upset NJD fans are with wasting a 4th on Lazar.  Moves can be small. It is ok.

Yeah they didn’t make any other major moves before today either so that’s a clear apples to apples comparison    |
