A year ago I was hoping to give Markstrom away for free. He has been completely inconsistent between seasons during his 4 years in Calgary.
Would not be surprised to see him have another bad season next year.
Getting a 1st rounder for a 34 year old goaltender is a win for me.

Is this the best they could get? The top 10 protected makes this deal meh.

This deal is a win, huge win if there is no retention.
But I was one who never believed we were getting some of the suggested returns to begin with.

Now that it's out there does this match up with what you were hearing?

I'm definitely thinking the Flames are drafting forwards now. All we do is collect d men.

Nevermind the return, this puts us in tank territory for the upcoming season. I approve.

What's the woofing about? We got rid of a $12M albatross who had -1.6 GSAE in 165 games before this year in exchange for a 1st round pick and a former 2nd rounder who played all 82 games.
Another awesome deal.

It's an above avg (expectation wise) return but honestly I'm just happy this ordeal is over. It's also not terrible considering the fiasco management pulled during the season.

My opinion they should have taken back more salary or retained to get more return... Unless that just hasn't been released yet

Do Devils even make playoffs next year? They were 7th in the metro

I hope so.
Now the flames have $26M in cap-space to screw it up though...

It's all about what they do with the pick now. Flames scouts will busy next season and hopefully they can nail these picks as I'm still a little scarred from the last time this organization had three 1st round picks and received zero NHL value from two of them.
