This is what a rebuilding teams defence looks like.

You finally convinced? Haha

Seems just ok to me, but curious if others think there is more there?

The feeling is there’s some upside given his age and the fact he was on the third line. And a 50 pt center with size is a valuable player. Most of the centers drafted in the first round a few days ago will not turn out that well.

Sorry, it was a quote from a Pantera song.

Not sure why you feel the need to refer to a persons skin colour, when there was no reference to that all. I would have used the same quote on any other player.

He didn't hand out term - and in fact he even handed out less than I thought he would.

Conroy just nailed the draft, and free agency in my eyes.

The Flames still have over $20 MM in cap space. Wow!

Now I’m confused, is this post sarcastic?

Now we wait to see how he weaponized the remaining 20m in cap

if he can somehow land Laine without subtracting any futures, I'll be over the moon.

(I love Laine's skillset, always have)

While I’m ok with them holding the line here, I really wish they’d make plays for Kakko and Pinto. Two young guys I could see being a big part of a future successful roster.

If they are cheap acquisitions then go for it but I wouldn’t give up significant futures for either

Well they can split it. I think there's some nice deals to be made this week.

[dammage79]

Do the Flames and their fans have an appetite for Jack Roslovic? I think I could make some time for that idea. Maybe my 2nd choice behind signing Wennberg.

[UKflames]

Seems pretty quiet in the NHL right now for free agent day?

[BrownDrake]

Flames have almost $21 million in cap space with 22/23 signed, 3 other teams with more cap space but all have 17/23 signed.

[Braden]

Any inside bits Sec, Royal, dist? Or should I carry on with my day??? Is it wrong to want some sort of splash on free agency day? (Trade preferred)

and that doesn't include Pelletier and Coronato.

So really, they have 24 signed, with more than $18M in cap space

[dammage79]

Oooooooo. Lundell and the Panthers aren't close to anything as per Pagnotta

I would much rather have Roslovic than Wennberg. Is he a UFA? I didn't see him on the list...
