Overall, very happy with this deal, but more than that it feels like we FINALLY have a path, we are bottoming out, and are acquiring an obscene amount of draft capital in the process (like almost historic amounts). This is the way…..

Funny, the Avs wouldn't give Kadri the contract he wanted from them (it was less than this) and now they trade all this for it lol

So many people called the Kadri signing terrible - one of the worst contracts in the NHL, and completely unmovable.

Not so much.

#### Stauffer and the grease. We are their rivals, why in the #### would we not be cheering against them?

Honestly, my feelings would be hurt if they didn't cheer against us when the situations are reversed.

Ask them around what time and scan through the CHED archives.

I too want to hear the meltdown over their arch rival refusing to get behind them lol.

Not so much.
The Flames are paying him $5.08m for him to play for someone else. I'd say that's a pretty crappy deal. Furthermore, it takes away one of the three retention slots for the next three seasons.

and the Avs are paying a 1st, 2nd, player, prospect to pay him 15M when they could have just signed him for less than the Flames did

Flames retained and got major assets for a player they got for free, not even you can spin this as bad

I'm happy to say I always like the signing. I wanted Kadri on the Flames going all the way back to when he was drafted.

I think a big part of why people didn't like it though was that Monahan had to leave to make it possible.

Ha. Ha. Ha. So many pretend GMs who overreact to everything, without knowing bugger all about negotiations, cap, etc. I don't know myself, therefore I trust Conroy. Go ahead and whine though. It looks good on you.

LOL good try.

They got 3 solid years out of him then got a 1st, 2nd and a prospect for him.

That's the furthest thing from untradable.
