Typical Flames move would be to obtain the lesser Makar brother.

Are you saying there weren't issues that needed to be resolved? The timing of the sort of announcement should give an inkling otherwise. There has been back and forth on this for weeks.

Why so eager to focus on trying to prove someone wrong before the terms are even known?

With retention after all. That's significant.

Yeah. Clearly Gemini was inventing stuff as usual. It said 5th to Habs, from Avs. Laine to Flames, Habs retain 12.5%

So the retention ask came down becasue 20% only $1.4M - which was right around where I thought it was fair ($1.5M retention)

Prove someone wrong that spends their whole life trying to prove someone wrong? Seems onside.

Yeah there's more if there's 20 percent retention.

2028 is a bit far out, but it's a 1st so I'm happy.

I got nothing bad to say about Kadri. Came over with hopes of playing on a good team and unfortunately it was a dumpster fire from day one. There were a few low points but for the most part he was a good player that embraced the city and had some good moments over his time as a Flame. I wish him the best of luck with the Avs.

Don’t even hate that it’s not 2026. Spread the picks out and keep the pipeline fresh
