As long as we don't draft another Hunter Smith with it.

I seem to remember it involved Hanowski

I think it was cammilari for drouin or something

It was 100% Cammalleri, and it was for an absurd at the time prospect. Can't remember if it was Drouin but it was a team that needed to win some games to keep their playoff spot at the time.

I think you guys tossing around trade proposals for Anderson are likely in for disappointment. If this team is in a playoff spot, I don't think he gets traded; he provides too much value and stability. Anderson brings compete, and management is not on Team Tank. I think moving any roster player currently is going to be a tough decision for connie.

I think there are guys that Connie brought in with the intention of getting them ice time and minutes to sell off. Those guys are bean, barrie, kuzmenko and mantha. But his more likely move at this point is to start weaponizing the cap space the team has as none of them have really done much to improve their value (imo). Maybe someone like Pelletier or Poirier.. (a team with poirier, parekh, and Brzustewicz making the team in the next couple years seems like a team with too many offensive defensemen).

Anderson could get a lot in return for sure, but not only would it decimate the defense, it would hurt the morale of the team by trading him (arguably their best player this year) away for assets that don't make an impact now, when the team is performing well.

I get it, christmas is coming, we all want shiny new toys - but ... if we get one, I doubt we move Anderson, or really any roster player making an impact right now.

More efforts and mediocre goaltending is to come, similar to last night.
Trade Andersson this year.

You got it, it was Cammalleri for Drouin the season in Cammy's last year with the flames and also Drouin's D+1 season. I don't remember who the poster was but I'm sure they'd be delighted to know the joke is still going more than 10 years later.

I don't think many of us expected them to run the table...it was still a one goal game though

Agreed.

I think Conroy places a high value on players who want to be here. We’ve heard Andersson wants to compete for a cup, which is fair and, likely, what must players want. If it’s not 1 on the list, it’s probably 2 or 3.

That said, I think the Flames are like saying to Andersson ‘let’s just see how this season goes’. If the Flames are competitive for a playoff spot by years end and Andersson can see a path to being competitive, he may open the door, more so, to resigning.

At this point I think it’s 75/25 Andersson stays here the remainder of this year. Short of him asking out or a team giving them an offer which would include a high, top 10 pick, or a can’t miss prospect, I don’t think the Flames are ready yet to move him.

This offseason, it might get a little more interesting. Similar to last year, I don’t think they get beyond the TDL without an extension or a trade.

Andersson cannot sign an extension until after this year is over. He still has one more year to go on his contract.

It really depends on if Andersson says he wants out. They trade Markstrom after he made it known and will do the same with Andersson. If Andersson has made it known he wants out then I think he will be gone in the offseason at the latest. The sooner they trade him the better value wise.

I know, that is what I’m saying. To clarify, I don’t think they get beyond next years TDL without a trade or extension.

Also worth considering, Anderson can’t sign an extension until this offseason but there’s no limitation on he and his agent talking contract with the Flames before the offseason.

I 100% agree if flames are in playoff spot at deadline they won’t consider trading Anderson. That said there is a lot of hockey to be played. As well as the flames have played so far , they are only 4 points away from being on the outside looking in. If the flames aren’t in playoff spot they have to trade Anderson this year for the best return. If they go into next year and don’t agree on an extension they are looking at a hanifin type return.

Saw a tweet that said the Avs have the worst team save percentage since the Ottawa Senators in their inaugural season - they won 10 games.
