Zadorov just requested a trade. 😢

Add a Dube for Jarnkrok swap if that helps (and it’s the desire) to get Lindholm in the 8-8.5MM range.

I think we are at the point now where the Flames aren't signing anybody, they be all gone.

Jarnkrok was a bitter disappointment in his first stint here and that was a good hockey team he played on.

[Paulie Walnuts]

Lindholm isn't even worth the contract we offered let alone the 9 plus he wants.

We should find him a new home and let someone else pay for his disappearing act.

[Hells Bells]

I'd take Klingberg, Minten and a 2nd or 3rd pick.. and run. Truly.

Klingberg on an expiring contract, can play #6 mins and just maybe inject some life into this pathetic powerplay. Minten is a solid prospect, the pick is gravy.

Klingberg has an NTC, not sure why he'd waive it to come to Calgary?

I've been a Flames fan since 1984, and let me say that I am a fan of Elias Lindholm and what he's done for the franchise and community over the years.

While saying that, I'd be hard pressed to watch this team anymore if they were to sign long term deals with Lindholm/Hanifin/Zadorov at the numbers they want. This team with them in their prime isn't good right now, imagine how that'll age.

Let's dial back on the anchors, and try to hit a reset button.

Should be a team policy. No more long term deals for anyone over 28!!

Lou makes you shave the Flames let you walk.

We are already stuck with Huberdeau and Kadri can't add someone who has mailed it in. Even more concerning is he's playing for a contract.

So he can get moved to a contender at the deadline

Easy. It's only until April, and he gets away from the circus.

Likely get an opportunity to run the PP here too, which can up his worth when UFA time comes.

Yep, at this point he is playing for future earnings and staying in Toronto likely isn't going to help that. It could be a good business decision to come to Calgary and get out from under the Toronto spotlight for a while. Calgary might not be his first choice, but he might not have any other choice if he wants to save his own season.

I imagine he wants out of Toronto. So if it’s Toronto -> Calgary -> Elsewhere, that’s likely fine by him.

Zad has been a bum this season, last night was especially terrible. It was a 2-1 game until he decided to gift the other team a goal

Dino7c (Flames PR) starts the transition from staunchly defending a Flames player to trashing him as awful when he leaves.

Well at least he didn't mention mueseums, as a reason said player doesn't fit the core.

Well hopefully Calgary is on his 10 team NTC.

Because he turned down $56M 18 months ago, and Calgary might force
Feed him some PP time to juice his value.

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

Since we're going to lose a lot anyways, Klingberg isn't a bad consolation prize at all. He'll be a fire drill but he could help the PP score a damn goal

I mean did you watch the game? the season?

I said he was the worst player in the outdoor game two weeks ago but okay...its just because of his trade request

keep being obsessed with me

Zadorov hasn’t been any worse defensively than any of the others. They’ve all taken their turns sh***** the bed defensively this year. At least Zadorov brings some other exciting elements to his game.

He'd be better off racking up points on Toronto's PP with the likes of Nylander, Marner...Matthews... Taveres, then Flames dumpster fire of a PP

He also doesn't play the tough matchups

I guarantee the others have more value
