There's no way Jimmy Snuggerud is a real person's name. This is a player that someone made up using a Harry Potter name generator.

Really feels like they should have been able to get more impactful return on those assets than what they did
Look at how Edmonton spent their futures too.

Spending futures to fill role player positions is bad business, full stop.

Spend futures on foundational/top end players? That's okay - everything else is bad business.

We saw it with Treliving, we see it Edmonton, and we see it again in Toronto with Treliving. It's GMs having an incredibly narrow view of their roster/their place in the league. Vegas has largely got it right, however they've been spending for the sake of spending since they won their Cup. Hertl? Bad trade. Hanifin? 2nd pair defenceman, bad trade.

Kadri, Coleman maybe. Some leadership.

Probably would take a 1st and Anderson to get either out of the Flames hands. And they'd need to waive.

His undeniable work ethic resulted in what Flames Director of Sports Performance Rick Davis called an “elite score” in the speed bike test to kick off training camp.

The bike test (also known as the “Wingate”) records a player’s peak over a six-second interval, which then correlates to acceleration and speed capabilities off the line.

“Think horsepower or torque,” Davis said.

Honzek scored an eye-popping 19.9 watts per kilogram of body mass, which is the highest score of any Flame in the past 10 years of data.
Probably 1600 watts by 80 kg or in that area. Very very good, but the key is the weight of 80 kg. It's easier to achieve high watt/kg if you weigh less, but he needs more mass and strength to play in the NHL at his height.

He's not trying to win Milano San Remo.

Montreal was very high on Pospisil going into this last season, but I don't think he's worth either of their picks. We'd be dreaming.

Andersson+Pospisil+32 for 16+17

Take out 32 TBH

Andersson is worth at least 16 + a 2nd
Pospisil is worth a 2nd

So the flames adding a 1st would be too much.

Maybe a 2nd or 3rd going back the other way but not 32

I doubt MTL trades both their 1sts, I read the rumor as them being open to trading one of them.

But of course, we'll see.
