This idea that you can just perpetually roll in new goalies for cheap, like they are growing on trees, is just not realistic, IMO

Amazing how when the Leafs need capspace to make some moves, Reaves goes and injures himself, hmmm. Mostly green text but that's where I'm at with this league

Agreed. It's rare you luck out and get a Niemi or Ullmark or Logan Thompson to carry your teams majority of starts.
Just trying to figure out other outlier goalies who made impacts coming out of nowhere or struggling with other franchises. Ooooo, Martin in SJ.

Should the Flames try for Jordan Kyrou? Seems like his time in STL may be done .

No kidding, they were booing him every time he touched the puck.

It’s odd that he’s getting ripped for not being unhappy enough about a coach being fired.

Why? I have zero desire for them to take on that contract at the start of a rebuild

You probably add even with Kyrou stuck in a rut right now. Maybe the 3rd that Zadorov brought in.

He’s only 25 and the contract isn’t that rich - less than Lindholm wanted.

His stats this year indicate he is a on a bit of a downward slide and he signed for 7 more years. Sign me up for those handcuffs. The more long term contracts we get the better.

25 year old, 8.125m for 7 more years after this, that's open money IMO. That's the kind of money you do tie up into players at that age and production.
I just think he'd be a perfect fit for our Zary and Sharnagovich type players.
Subtract the 5.5 of mangiapanes cap hot this year and next and it's perfectly fine for a retool/rebuild.....IMO.

Yeah, so he makes the team a little better in the near term and takes up cap when they’ll need it for their next wave of players. Only way I’d do it is if gets rid of Kadri’s contract.

The Flames shouldn’t be tying up long term money in any player right now. I’d be all over it if they didn’t just start to bottom out

Huberdeau ($1.5M retained) and 2nd for Kyrou
Honestly that's the type of opportunity the Flames need. A guy who is also in the 1st year of an 8 year deal that's getting booed on home ice by the fans and a team that seems a bit desperate after firing their long time coach

If you think the Flames are going to rebuild I have had news for you. Unless you associate rebuild and retool as the same thing.
