We need the Ryan Leslie eye emoji to know it's close.

Hemming and a late first is not a bidding war

The best fit for all involved IMO is San Jose . He'd be their #1, can pay him what he wants, and the Sharks have all sorts of goodies the Flames can pick from

I think he will be happy. He's been losing his **** on barnburner for weeks, I think we're all frustrated with this era of Flames hockey.

I hope the West team is San Jose

OilFan81 has been connected in the past to San Jose and said he expected them to put in a more formal bid this week.

If I'm Rasmus I look at Celebrini and go "Yeah I want to be hitched to that guys wagon for 8 years".

He has that Crosby, Mackinnon, McDavid feel right now that it's just inevitable that the team becomes elite eventually.

LA
SJ
DAL
BOS
DET
VGK
TOR (lol)

It has gotta be LA... at Andersson's request. I can totally see him asking for LA just to troll media and fans for reporting that he wouldn't go to LA.

No because that would mean it’s Toronto this time.

I can't tell if he meant our Rhett or Flames Nation Rhett.

Yeah, the more I look at Hemming, the more I get Stromgren vibes.

I am hoping the return is something else, TBH.

One of my favourite players in the NHL. Grateful to have had him on our team for so long.
One of the best parts about Andersson is there's 0% chance that he'd even consider signing with the coilers.

He could... And then do nothing but score own-goals every time he's on the ice.

Hemming was not good in the WJC, hard pass at a deal with him as the main piece

Rasmus and Mangiapane are best buddies and we've already seen one of them sabotage the Oilers as a double agent. Just saying.
