This must be a very complicated trade with a lot of moving parts. Maybe it’s one of those huge three team trades where everyone is like OMG that’s insane!!! Or maybe not.

Flames offer Noah 8x $8mm = $64mm, Sec says VGK offers 8x (call it) $7mm= $56mm.

Would you pay $8mm to go live in Vegas over Calgary?

Seems like an odd decision if you ask me. Maybe Noah got VGK offer and circled back to CGY- “yeah, I’m in on that extension…”

Edstrom's skating isn't great either. But Brisson is already putting up points in the NHL. Would be fine with either. Or both! Get it done, Connie.

I think Danielle Fujita has done a great job helping with some of our poorer skating prospects though. I wouldn't hate him being part of a better return.

Vegas has no state tax and Hanifin takes home more money in Vegas vs Calgary

Thankfully I showed up to the party late. Would be epic blueballs after 2 hours of refreshing.

I admit I don't know a ton about the player, maybe a guy like Sandman can give a better read. I could be totally wrong on the guy.

Taxes make up some difference, despite what Walsh says. And lots of people spend plenty of dough to live just part time in warm climates.

If our scouts like him I like him, they have been great.

This is what people always seem to forget. Taxes.
