Now there's an angle. Wings could use a bit of space. Hiller for Howard? I know he's slipped but I think he's like Cam Ward a bit.

Only if they retain some of that contract.

We retain half of Hiller's contract for this season, and they retain $1 million of Howard for the remainder.

@DarrenDreger: Interesting back story on Martin Jones trade. Calgary was in the mix last night, but backed out. Offer sheet threat encouraged trade...
SJ hasn't signed Martin Jones yet.

We could offer sheet him there.

Yeah I like that too. Sick top 4 and still a great bottom 2. Give Wideman PP time with Hamilton. Definitely one of the best D groups in the league.

Treliving is amazing but I think I even that is way out of the realm of possibility.

Ya I definitely think it was the 2016 1st that scared Treliving away... and I agree with him.

There are other options out there and the Flames aren't exactly desperate for a starter, Hiller is serviceable and Ortio could surprise.

Saad looking for 4 million a year on a long term deal. Hawks want to bridge @2.8 2 year deal. I'd post the tweet but my PC has been having issue copy/pasting things.

I'm hoping Tree can fleece Bergevin for Galchenyuk now too. I mean, why stop at Hamilton?

Hell, Saad would be my target.

If Hawks were smart they'd do whatever they can to lock him up long term at $4M. He'll only get more expensive the longer they wait.

If thats what they're trying to get Saad at, we should try to sign him to an offer sheet.

If we get him, we get one hell of a player, if they match, they have to pay him more money.

Why the heck would the Hawks want to move Saad? Looks like he should be a core player moving forward. Unless the return s amazing that could be brutal move for Chicago.

Edit: looks like I'm late to the party.

I know this is a joke, but anytime Stamkos and Calgary are said in the same sentence, I get a little giddy.

Lots of interesting RFAs.

Boedker, Nyquist, Johansson, Tarasenko, Huberdeau, Jurco, Hagelin, Stepan, Kadri, Smith, Wilson, Galchenyuk, Granlund, Nelson, Kuznetsov, Haula.

Interesting to see if there are any fireworks tomorrow.

Would love Nyquist, becomes our version of Tyler Toffoli.
