And then they'll start sucking again and crash back to earth in November.

Somethings that are going against the Flames:

They will have to learn a new system under a new coach, so that is going to take time.

There is not enough depth on the team.

No Johnny.

The west is very good.

So, not ridiculous at all.

If he doesn't sign and it comes out that Johnny's camp came down to the low 7's than this is a failure on Treliving.

I disagree.

The thing with Derek Wills is he doesn't know anything. hes as informed as you or I, or perhaps less because he doesn't have mattyC or pylon's source telling him stuff. His source is Eric Francis.

Someone needs to switch the bowl of skittles in the negotiation room with a bowl of Ecstasy. This will be the fairest deal ever.

Bennett, Hamilton, Tkachuk represent 3 huge pieces of our future
Johnny in my opinion is the face of the franchise and engine that drives the offense. While a winger should typically not be considered a teams franchise player I think in our situation Johnny is in fact that piece for us. No Gio cap Treliving needs to establish the Johnny cap
