Lots of yknows, but he's quite well spoken.

He sounds genuinely happy to be here. Exact opposite of how Johnny sounded with his new team.

Makar raves about Calgary. He's coming home!

Both Kadri and Huberdeau have given the impression they're happy to be part of the team. Both seem like good additions to the team in terms of personality.

I have a good impression of Kadri based on this call.

Someone needs to do a wellness check on Eric Francis. He was MIA.

After hearing Tkachuk Gaudreau Kadri Huberdeau and Weegar all speak at their introductory press conferences I just feel there's a lot more maturity and a focus on winning from the guys coming in as oppose to the guys that left. It's night and day really.

Maybe he's busy trying to figure out who to run out of town, now that the last core is all gone.

I couldn't help but think Treliving's comment about Kadri being a player who wants to play on the "big stage" and how some players don't want that was a shot at the guys who'd rather play in Columbus or sit on the beach in Florida.

Shot or not it's just reality, especially in Gaudreau's case

I can see the Kadri sweater becoming a fan favourite before too long.

I need to update my Flames jersey collection with some current players. Kadri is definitely in consideration.

Lots of different eras etc in the saddledome jersey count but if there are 14,000 people wearing a Flames jersey what's the count ...

- of people wearing Gaudreau, Monahan, Giordano or Tkachuk
vs
- everything else?

60%

Big jersey sales year coming up.
