The Cammalerri non trade was when the rest of the league quit ####ing around with the Flames. Game changing moment for sure.

I still think for any winger Seattle would be a enticing to play with Beniers and Wright. Seattle is a sneaky candidate nobody talks about.

Tkachuk signed a three year bridge by convincing Tre a long-term contract could be worked out in the last year of RFA. Now he's using the last year of RFA status to leave. Tre is a sucker, but Tkachuk is a snake lol.

Prior to this season, I believed this core couldn't win. I'm honestly not upset with a rebuild.


It's not what what you said. It's how you said it.
It's not that they're gone. It's how they left.

I feel like you may ultimately may be proven right, but it still feels bad. It just reflects on the organization and even the city so poorly that it’s hard not to take it personally.

Seravalli agrees The Athletic list is incorrect. He says it’s a small list of 4-5 teams.

He says the Flames are not afraid to go past the arbitration hearing or start the season with Tkachuk if it means the Flames get the right trade.

Gotta be close to a record in terms of how fast a team has gone from a cup contender to absolute trainwreck and full rebuild.

It's not Trudeau's fault that the Flames built themselves with two keystone American players. There was nothing exceptional about Canada's COVID restrictions, and in fact many of the travel restrictions that impacted American players more, were American restrictions.

I get hating on Trudeau, but blaming him for this seems overboard.

I won't miss Tkachuk. Never really liked him that much anyways. Glad the Flames won't be building around him as captain for the next 8 years or something.

The owners had another option if they really really want a new arena.

I don't know if coordinated but I think Tkachuk's choice was binary on whether Gaudreau signed. It will be coordinated if the Blue Jackets end up with Tkachuk lol
