Between these pieces we should have most of the skaters that will make up the core of this rebuild.

More darts would be gravy.

Zary, Bru, and Kuz as well.

I think Bahl is a piece. He's a defensive stud

[Jay Random]

Also the ‘28 1st and 2nd and Vegas 2nd. When the team starts to be competitive again, those picks will be needed to supply players on ELCs for cap purposes.

For sure. I was listing pieces added since Coronato.

Zary, brz, kuz and the goalies are a part of the picture too.

I left out the longer shots and guys playing in teenage leagues.

[Roko]

Miserable yet perfect. This team is going to crash, no heart, no effort.
Kadri should be next to go, he has been awful and clearly wants out.

[Stampede2TheCup]

Tank you very much, Flames.

I agree it would have been nice to see Gridin score. He’s had some cloee chances since he was called up again.

[robertsfanatic]

Gridin likely is on the big team full-time next season...possibly this one too.

also want to see Honzo stay healthy and get a full year...both biggish guys

Had 5 attempts tonight in 11 minutes.

Soo.. why is he playing only 11 minutes.

Huska still having trouble embracing the youth movement, I see.

I saw quite a bit of effort and heart tonight. They just struggle to score so much that when the puck starts going in their own net and you need a few goals to win they pretty much know it ain't happening. Rebuilds aren't easy, on the fans or the players.

Feels like we watched two different games. I thought the effort was sorely lacking.

Listening to the radio and Lowry said they had no emotion, Huska questioned whether something was amiss in their preparation and Pat S called the effort one of the most pedestrian efforts of the season.

I think it was fine when the game was close. At the end, probably not as much. But like I said they start getting scored on it's tough to have a ton of energy knowing the game is already over.

Lowry saying they had no emotion is not correct.

[agulati]

Well that was a snore fest.

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

Devin Cooley is probably the last remaining threat to the bottom out down the stretch.

1st in NHL SV%
3rd in NHL GAA

Thankfully we're keeping the starts down for the gnarly cali bruh.

Kadri and Coleman can still both steal games... Trade then ASAP!

[GioforPM]

I thought they had effort but their execution was terrible.

[Dion]

You can't hope to win many games when you don't have the offensive weapons. Need to score more than 1 goal per game like they have in the last 2 games.

They clearly miss Andersson. Team lacked leadership and motivation. I'm guessing that's something Andersson provided in the dressing room. Team looks lost.

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

If Kadri is going to flat line the rest of the way you honestly may as well get a deal done for him as well.

If he's phoning it in here then there's no value in keeping him around. Where he does appear to have value is the trade market... for now.

Another 1st and prospect would be amazing asset management. I think Kadri might have one more effective season left before that AAV starts to look bad.

[#-3]

Got home with 1 minute left in the game tonight haven't seen much of it. Is the Whitecloud pump and dump real.

2nd in D minutes
Leading all D in +/-
2 shots
1 assist

pretty damn nice stats line for a 4-1 lose.
