Valimaki had a very odd waiver situation which confused everyone.

So if the Flames acquire a center ...

Ruzicka comes out?
Monahan comes out?

If the Flames acquire a winger ...

Lewis comes out? Can't see it, though he's the offensive weakest link
Dube comes out?

It's going to be interesting next week.

I think if it's a winger, Dube comes out. Lewis is great defensively, and is doing a good job on Backlund's line, other than not scoring.

If it's a C< I think Ruzicka comes out, unless Monahan goes the other way in the trade

Agreed.

Just think the crew that want young and skilled are going to be ticked when it all comes down.

Indeed. It's going to be a vet with some jam, a nasty streak and a little offensive ability -- ideally, Ville Niemenen 2.0.

Please don't be Dustin Brown.

Why would the Kings be sellers?

[Toonage]

Also Brown is hurt and out for some time

And I don't know if he has a NTC off the top of my head but he hated Sutter. A lot.

Of course. As I was typing it, he just seemed to fit the bill. Someone Brown-like who isn't hurt on a non-playoff team, then.

Didn't know that. Kind of surprising. Seems like the kind of player Sutter would love.

Agreed, Lewis is a key piece for the PK, Dube would be first to be removed from the lineup

As for the Center, really depends what type of center is acquired.

If Monahan is still with the Flames, Ruzicka is probably sent to AHL.

Jarnkrok is a winger that everyone seems to think will play centre here.

[Goriders]

Maybe Kylington is on the trading block.
