And hoist Stanley once or twice in those 3 years, probably

Try being less of a pezzmist and more of an optometrist.

Well that's just a slightly negative take.

Flames forward group is suddenly very good and well slotted.

Huberdeau-Lindholm-Toffoli
Mangiapane-Kadri-Coleman
Pelletier-Backlund-Dube
Lucic-Ruzicka/Rooney-Lewis

Or some combination of

Drouin or Monahan? Seems like its been the case for both players.

Montreal flips Monahan and retains salary and buys out Drouin

They might have room for Dach still.

Would be interesting to see him and Weegar playing together.

Last I remember about Byron he was missing a lot of time due to concussion issues, has that changed?

It's a tough position to be in trying to decide if it's worth giving up the future for a chance to win. Let's be fair though the Flames have a clear number one goalie, a top coach and a balanced team. If moving out Monahan and bringing in Kadri is the move that puts them over the top you have to make it. That being said I'm a bit disappointed in how the Flames treat their prospects and I hope they at least give some looks to players who performed well last season in the AHL.

Damn, wish The Yotes could've taken Monahan and a 1st.

Weegar though Byron threw a dirty hit on another Panther and they ended up fighting which resulting in Byron missing a few games from a concussion.

Yikes. Got caught with a solid upper cut.

Steinberg says that based on some conversations he has had it is likely Florida's 2025 1st going to Montreal.

And that's ok.

[The Yen Man]

If a 1st is involved, there better be something coming back to the Flames.

I'm more curious what is coming back.

If it’s a first, I’ll bet the Flames get some kind of lesser pick.
