Stolarz getting run?

Man, Toronto needs grit.

Andersson, Kadri, and Klapka have lots of “grit” and “intangibles”. Tree loves that crud.

Guys, we are not getting McKenna. It isn't happening. When have the Flames ever had that kind of luck?

Well, if we aren't winning games against cup contenders, it means we have to win most of our games vs non cup contenders to make the playoffs. Doable but a big challenge.

Poor Huska, has his extension even kicked in yet? This realistically wasn’t a contending year but man this is bleak already. How soon before fingers start pointing at him in the media.

They’ve never earned it. It’s not about luck, it’s about a willingness to endure short term pain. You earn the best odds to draft the best.

Well, the fans earn it.

But we are going to have to figure out a better way of doing this, b/c it could be a long season and a long few years.

They have done pretty well with all their high picks. If they get into the bottom five then I’m pretty confident they’ll come out with a player. Doesn’t seem like an amazing center crop though.

…well damn, you could say the same thing has happened to Huberdeau here.
They’ll turn Parekh into Bahl.

The big problem with the direction this season is geading is it’s going to ruin our young guys

Wolf
Coronato
Parekh
Zary
Honzek

Wonder if there’s a way to send them down to the Wranglers for 2 or 3 years.

Stenberg might be better than McKenna. You are getting a good player even if you don't pick #1.

I'm trying to find it. It was more along the lines of he needs to work on his defense and he isn't going to be able to score as much as in junior because the system is much different and focused more on defense rather than offense.

It wasn't a shot at the coach, I just found it interesting. Especially considering how bad we are defensively anyways.

Poor results don’t ruin young players.

Poor coaching does.

they have nothing to trade though. No prospects and I think he's already traded their 2026 and 2027 1sts?

Yeah…best they could do is the 2028 1st, which…is only actually appealing if Kadri does the whole “I’ll only go to Toronto”.
