Summer 2027 - new building, McKenna a Flame, Makar signs here for eight years, Calgary becomes a destination for players seeing all of these pieces fall into place... a man can dream. Crossing fingers!!

If not, the future looks way brighter than it did before.

Exactly
We got younger, dealt with all our pending free agents, have some pretty interesting prospects, got a bunch of picks and have a ton of cap space.
Yet
There are those who are still unhappy. They want to lose on top of all that. Just like Oiler fans

Gonna give him a B+ on the day, trading Markstrom for a good return would have made it an A

Sometimes the best deals are the ones you don't make.

Put me in the "happy to not have to watch a team intentionally tank" camp. Conroy sold the UFAs, got a ton of picks and got the team younger. And they are playing as a team and winning. Games are fun and they are knocking off some quality teams.

When Markstrom is on he is fun to watch. If LA lost out on Ullmark I could see them taking a run at him this summer. Lots of possibilities. Until then I'm going to enjoy watching the Flames and hope they squeek in.

Maybe an Iginla or two

Wonder if we see a deal where the Flames take an overpaid second pairing D for a pick.

If they are going to go for that WC spot and there’s a pick to be had for taking a bad contract, why not?

Hoping we draft Tij this year, McKenna with our 2026 1st and Joe with Vegas's 2026 1st!

Tij is looking like he will go in the 8-10 spot. I highly doubt we pick better than 13th

Absolutely. I've done the same. Enjoy your holiday!

I think it'd be for a center over a D man, they have enough depth at D.

We will just have to trade up to get Tij.

I like how Alex Nylander finally just clicks in Columbus. Showing finally after all these years yes a player

We certainly have the ammo to do so

[trackercowe]

Vintage Treliving at the deadline!

[Buff]

Haven't heard that the Flames have made no more moves yet. Have to think that Conroy is sitting in the trade queueueueue right now.

[AustinL_NHL]

Yay Flames trade per Frank

[FlamesAreOne]

@frank_seravalli
#Flames still have one trade in the queue.

[dammage79]

Last second drama for the Flames. 1 in the Hopper!!
