Haha if all these reports are true the decision on how to move forward is clear as day.
Don't mess this up CC.
Load. Up. On. Futures.

So where are the trade requests from players who are signed beyond next year? Surely they all hate it too.
Damn.

The same horrible division that had the most number of teams in the second round and won the Stanley Cup?

Which one of these guys should the Flames sign long term??
All would be bad except maybe Lindholm...although if he wants 9M that would be bad too

Clean slate, Flames. You can do it. Don't chicken out.

Either that, or load up on a bunch of picks in a mediocre 2024 draft that end up being in the 20s.
Both would be equally underwhelming yet totally on brand.

Why all of a sudden do these players want to bail? The regime has changed and they got what they wanted, yet they all want to head out.
I'm sorry but I dont get it.
I'm not saying I am sad to see them go but I thought a wholesale change is what they wanted. So it begs me to ask the question....why?

Just my guesses.
Feels like people jumping off a sinking ship.

Also:
- Cold, small, Canadian city.
- Second worst arena and training facilities in the league.
Throw enough money at them and they’d probably stay. But I assume Conroy balked at being bent over.

Maybe the hiring of a rookie coach didn't inspire them either? Hard to understand at this point. This kind of mass exodus is unheard of.

Weak based on Anaheim and San Jose? It’s not weak because of LV, Edm, Sea, and LA.

Treliving takes the blame for this more than Murray. Multiple sources had Gaudreau willing to re-sign before his last season here but Treliving got cute and then the exodus started. You can also go back to him signing Neal and Frolik and giving Tkachuk a bridge.
Murray probably takes the blame for forcing Sutter onto the team but Tre blew the coaching hires as well.
