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!!

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.

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

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

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.
