Not sure if it matters, but Zellweger also played with Wolf in juniors in Everett.

You said the same thing about Necas in the summer though. Underlying stats will always be bad if a player isn't playing well. Change of scenery could change that.

You also said Wright wasn't worth more than Klapka and a 3rd.

Sometimes the stats get better.

Zary, Frost and Coronato are better players than Cozens.

We also have no room for him.

You likely mean Colorado but we all know that somehow he'll end up in Vegas

That is certainly a take

You said Andersson would be on the 3rd pairing in Dallas.

We can all play that game.

Necas had better underlying stats that showed he can drive play. Cozens career is a player that is a passenger.

The Flames need play drivers in the middle, not another Lindholm.

And jeeze, Maybe a pipe dream for the deadline but [ Huberdeau - Kadri - Rantanen ] would be a pretty slick top line.
Rantanen is the finisher Huberdeau dreams of. Though in his big season his finishers were Duclair and Bennett which doesn't exactly compute.

The task would be to get Kadri to pass the puck to them.

Underlying stats usually are better for players who play on good teams.

You called Necas a 40 point guy and then he puts up 90 ppoint pace.

Andersson won't excel in Dallas and isn't that good to return Bichsel

$100 mil cap world, $7 mil is 2nd line money. He doesn't need to be MacKinnon, just replace Kadri.

That or trade Kadri and sign Bennett, give the job to Frost/Zary, or trade for Cozens.

I know it’s a short sample size but when the Flames played Buffalo earlier this year I specifically watched Cozens most of the game since he’s been so hyped.

I didn’t really see anything special tbh.

Is he? I thought he wouldn’t back down in demands with them from $14million. Could be wrong though.

I gotta say the idea of a player like Rantanen coming here is pretty tantalizing. I don't care if they throw huge money at him.

Its the age that confuses me. He's only 1 year younger than Huberdeau was when we backed the truck up for him.

Realistically, how many years do you have left of those guys, Huberdeau, Rantanen, Kadri? If thats the plan. 4? 5? at the most. Are you going to shore up the defense in the mean time? Is Parekh going to be ready to be elite? Is Zary and Coronato going to be ready?

At this point in my fandom, I'm just along for the ride. I'm not losing sleep over what they should or shouldn't be doing. I just want fireworks, give me excitment, one way or another.

I would be surprised. Being shipped out like that would have to sour a player on a location.

Sure, It's also been stated he didn't expect to be traded and would of walked down his demand.

Colorado was sending a message to the entire organization and their reps. If you want to play here, we have a plan and your welcome to be apart of it but on our terms.
