If you take every ounce of skill out of Zadorov, what do you get?

The answer is this thread.

Treliving: Guys, you're still trying to replace Giordano. I told you we can't do it, and we can't do it. Now, what we might be able to do is re-create him. Re-create him in the aggregate.

I know I'm the outlier, but I'll wait until the season starts before making a decision on the Flames moves this year. Chemistry is a weird thing and maybe this year we'll have some.

I get that, and that’s why I’ve been pretty supportive (for the mode part) of the other depth signings. Gudbranson? Not even NHL caliber, and now takes away a decent chunk of space. He’s really living off of that 3rd OA pedigree.

I really do believe and hope a big move is coming. Looks like Rasmus is headed out. Even so, this is still likely the worst UFA signing of any GM this summer. WtF?

Don't understand this signing at all.

He should be coming in as a PTO not signed at 2 mil.

I'm canceling my cable, so at least I won't have to watch much of this season.

I don't care whether the trade market was impossible or not, the fact that the only place treliving seems willing to improve is depth F/d is extremely disappointing as a fan.

My take is that flames know they suck, hence, unwilling to trade futures, so willing to invest around the edges in the hopes of fighting for a WC spot.

This franchise sucks to be a lifer fan of, ugh.

Apparently

Big = Good

This signing has Sutter's influence written all over it

I'm the only one here but I don't mind this. Gudbransson is a leader and a great team first guy. His advanced stats are horrible but he's never been as bad as people made him out to be.


Having said that I don't see much logic in this signing regarding team building. Not that Treliving has had any eye for that anyway but still.
