Highly doubt it.

It's just not his MO. He has made exactly two NHL player-for-NHL player swaps mid season in his six seasons as GM, and they barely count:

Lazar and Kostka for Jokipakka and a 2nd

Jokipakka was only technically an NHL player at that point though. He played two more games that year then never played another NHL game

Jones for Backstrom and a 6th

Backstrom had played zero games that year and only played four more in his entire career. Jones played 16 more games before retiring.

Not exactly consequential moves, and both were at the deadline.

This is embarrassing

I hope the Flames realize how poor their effort has been over the last few games. Too be honest, most of this season.

They probably need a good embarrassing loss.

They haven’t really had a 6-1 against Pittsburgh moment yet this year because they came back in the third in a couple of them.

Every forward rush into the offensive zone goes wide to the boards. At which point they are rubbed out, give up the puck and get scored on. Recipe for success.

With any luck, this will be the equivalent of the 9-1 loss to Pittsburgh last year, and it'll kickstart a long winning streak.

The book has been out on the Flames for 60 games. Pressure in the neutral zone and we crumble. Peters has shown a complete inability to make any adjustments. There is a reason Carolina had been way better with a competent coach.

Vegas PbP guys were praising Talbot for the saves he'd made, too. This is terribad.

You cannot win with soft players like Gaudreau and Monahan. It’s not even debatable really. Goals and assists are nice but when teams who play tough show up they can’t produce. I truly believe we never achieve any success with such a soft top line. I hope both get moved this season.

His job is on the line this year if the flames truly fall apart. Things are different.

Tree won’t stand pat if this continues.

We have zero offence this year.

Colorado at home followed by a game in St Louis to start a 4 game road trip. I don't know if this is the bottom.

Not even upset about this game. This team is broken.
I see a major move coming, either coach or players.
Not one player, but a few.
Pretty sad that its rebuild time again.
