[Cecil Terwilliger]

Calgary Flames are the only nhl team without a medalist on their roster. Not unexpected with Pospisil being our only player.

I started responding to this with “and Rasmus” before I remembered

That's actually a great record. Sure it's mostly bronze and no golds, but considering we've never had a top 3 roster on paper, sometimes not even a top 5, it's something to be proud of.

Feels like I might live to see us get a gold eventually.

Joel Armia lead the team with 8 points. Doubt anyone predicted that one

Barkov could have been the difference in the Canada game. One of those "what could have been" things. Too bad Finland has no chance to replace a loss like that.

With his history, no one is going to take on his contract until he can come back for an extended period of time.

Treliving got Lindholm and Hanifin for a package that included the last player the Flames had who was at the same stage Pospisil is.

True, but he was by far the least valuable player in that package.
