Guy is having the worst season. We will probably be better. Parekh gets better time and we slot better

If you're going to do something, be the best at it. We are going to be very very very bad if all these guys get moved. Like Buffalo in the McDavid year bad.

And that is perfectly fine by me.

Yes. Their ability to keep games close is gonna evaporate.

I dunno, losing the green jacket leader doesn't seem like a huge hit?

If Weegar does move and the Flames move their 9th veteran for picks and prospects under Conroy are we rebuilding yet or is that still TBD? Is it possible this could be a ruse to distract from their efforts to just sneak in to the playoffs and have a chance?

IMO if the trade goes through the return will be good. the Flames have no reason to trade him otherwise. That they are asking him to waive means the return is decent.

If it's Beaudoin, Lamoreaux, and a 26 1st it's a beauty trade for a rebuild.

I could see why someone would pause before committing to Utah for the next half decade.

It's got some quirks... and it's not like they've been an undeniably successful franchise.

I'm honestly doubtful that he will accept. But if Friedman is reporting on it, it must be pretty close.

But no crime, due to the efforts of Orgazmo and Choda Boy!

Flames will easily have the worst roster in the league if two of Weegar, Kadri, and Coleman leave.

Also, whoever hated the addition of Whitecloud should be happy now. This definitely opened it up imo.

As someone who understands this process, this is quite the blunder that it's taken this long to get clarity on whether the player will waive NTC for Utah. Or EF jumped the gun.

If we lose Weegs but gain the rumoured package, I really think our rebuild is in a much better spot. We are missing forward prospects for sure.

Wonder with Murray being in town to entertain Bettman whether he's finally embraced the re-build and gave the go ahead for this trade. If so, I bet Coleman and Kadri go this week also...

Feels like the leak could be to pressure Weegar into waiving.

They finally have stable ownership. They’re not perennially selling off all their talent and taking on dead contracts. They’re currently on the upswing. And they’re a refreshed franchise in a new city happy to have them. Even if their shine wears off it will likely be at or after Weeger’s contract is up.
