That makes sense actually. He sounded like he had a grudge. It was totally out of character.

There's no doubt that this is a bad team. Unfortunately, making a bad team is a way to make a good team in the current NHL.

Yeah mad that this team wasn’t rebuilt properly in the first place.

He must be aiming for a full-time gig at Sportsnet with that idiotic take.

I keep seeing NHL media talking about how flames fans are mad, but even outside of Calgary puck, I don't know any real flames fans that are sad, let alone mad about the moves during the season/offseason so far.

Maybe FlamesNation? The commenters over there seemed to be pretty pissed at Conroy's draft, whereas, here it was universally applauded.

It's probably mostly on "X", lots of teenie boppers who comment who don't know anything about the game

Mad?

Already passed that stage long time ago

Sheesh. It’s been an amazing last week man, sure the past couple years have been a gongshow but there’s a lot to be optimistic about for the future.

[Flames1217]

So after all the dust settles, are we left going into next season as such :

Zary-Kadri-Kuzmenko
Huberdeau-Sharangovich-Mantha
Pelletier-Backlund-Coleman
Lomberg-Rooney-Pospisil

Weegar-Anderson
Bean-Pachal
Bahl-Miromanov
Hanley

Wolf/Vladar/Coopley

Wolf/Vladar/Coopley

They will try Huberdeau Zary Mantha.

Coronato on Backlunds wing. They also want to try Pospisil up the middle.

Ugly lineup.

[Sofa GM]

Colorado is in bad cap trouble,

To COL
Andersson (50%)
Duerr

To CGY
Girard
Ritchie
Gulyayev

Kuzmenko - Kadri - Sharangovich
Huberdeau - Zary - Mantha
Coleman - Backlund - Coronato
(Pelletier) - Pospisil - Lomberg
Rooney
Hunt
Duehr

Weegar - Miromanov
Bahl - Andersson
Bean - Pachal
Hanley

(Wolf)
Vladar

This is how I’d do the lines and pairings. I want to see Zary and Pospisil at centre. I expect the team wants Mantha to be Huberdeau’s goal-scorer. I think Coronato and Pelletier will stick this year.

I basically view the Flames as basically in the same territory of team as Columbus from this past season. That defensive group is horrendously bad. Weegar and Andersson are the only ones north of being a #6 this team has at the moment.

It's going to be a long season, but the CHL, particularly the OHL, should be fun to follow.
