Thanks, I recognized all the rest. I would have never guessed that was stillman

Stillman is the only cup winner there.

Which means there are technically two cup rings in that photo, regardless of whether or not you believe "it was in" in game 6.

These NHL guys aren't on expiring contracts and going to be lost for nothing. Alos, this current management team has shown very well in maximizing value for NHLers. Glencross/Russell. I'm sure they know what they are doing.

Sure, the option is there but I really doubt other GM's are equally willing to flip highly coveted first and second round picks to do so when we're talking about under performing players off the Flames roster going the other way (hamonic, brodie, hamilton). If it were that easy the team would have 3 or 4 picks in the first two rounds every year. Would you be pleased if the Flames traded a hypothetical first rounder for Klefbom or similar struggling D man? I wouldn't touch that with a ten foot pole.

Hrivik has played NHL games and is 26 yrs old so I think if there’s anyone who’s the most ready to jump back into the NHL from the minors, it’s gotta be him. Hoping this team can finally solidify all 4 lines because that could be huge going forward for our push towards the playoffs.

I'd really like to see Klimchuk get a shot
