How do you figure? Both Burmistov and Gagner are still fairly young, and the Canucks definitely need a goalie who can play +30 games while they transition to Maarkstrom as their starter.

The Canucks are going to be bad this year and for a few years to come, but they still have to ice an NHL roster.

@TSNBobMcKenzie

Don't be surprised if UFA Patrick Sharp returns home to Chicago Blackhawks tomorrow. CGY, amongst others, had substantial interest.

Edit: Whoops, didn't see SureLoss' thread

Not overly excited about Sharp as others are. He is 35, had hip surgery and a couple of concussions. His health is concerning. Hopefully his cap hit and term are low.

With that being said, I fully acknowledge that having Sharp probably makes the Flames a better team.

At the very least, it is nice to see that Calgary is once again becoming an attractive market for players. That says a lot about the team and the direction they are headed in. It has been probably 10 years for that to happen. Post 2004 was glorious for a few seasons with this sort of excitement, and this off-season has so far been much more exciting than the last 6 or 7 off-seasons at least.

The nice thing about his age is that it makes him eligible for a one-year contract with a low base salary and lots of bonuses. If he'll take a deal like that, it doesn't matter so much if he flops.

If Iggy signs in Edmonton Flames better give #12 to the next schlub they sign.

I know it's a stretch but Wayne Simmonds wears #17. I think that number is available here in Calgary. If we only knew the teams on his no trade list.

Working on 2 rumours involving @EdmontonOilers Draisaitl @Avalanche trade for Duchene & @SanJoseSharks interest in him. Lot of moving parts!
RUMOR:
Maybe this belongs in the E=NG thread? Can't be true....but Chiarelli doing Chiarelli things is not surprising.

Thankfully, Commodore just throws these things out to get a reaction and is never right about them.

Apart from the revolting nature of this, how does it make hockey sense?

I'm all for Iginla signing in Calgary, as we could use more push-back and leadership in the bottom 6, but Edmonton has that covered.
