Was this the first NMC given out by Treliving? It shows how important it was to finally get a #1 goalie.

Same goalie coach and started struggling the moment said coach was not a part of his day-to-day.
There isn't no connection or similarities. I just don't see Markstrom imploding is all.

Ya, when Kipper signed that deal cap was 56.7 mil. Huge difference.

Add to that the very apparent attitude issues across multiple teams. IMO he's living his best life in Florida and doesnt care too much about results.

I think it is.
It's an interesting side note since it was always the thing in Calgary for a long long time to not give out NMC's

The delay in finalizing this thing was probably the Flames lawyers teaching Markstrom how to answer questions about LIndholm's "influence" to avoid tampering charges.

Markstrom, on Swedish contingent in Calgary: "There's a lot of Swedes there and Sweden isn't hte biggest country in the world. You either played with them or against them growing up...I'm happy to be on the same team and not against." #Flames
Markstrom, on Calgary's pitch: "They really wanted me there and had a great pitch. We went through the teams. I felt Calgary would be a great fit for me. At the end of the day it felt the right way, it felt like it would be a great home for me and my family." #Flames

Imagine had he said "Calgary is building something special."
I think this board would have melted down and Photon could not save it

You know what would be nice? Just for a few minutes if we enjoyed the successful signing of a great free agent goalie and stopped criticizing everything about the contract. Honestly, if he agreed to a $1 salary, some of you would still complain.
Good deal. Good term. Welcome to Calgary. I look forward to watching him in net and not panning the deal before he even puts a Flames sweater on.

"What? My buddy Elias plays hockey for the Flames? I had no idea. We always just talk about golf. Well, isn't that a fun little coincidence?"

How does anyone not like this?
Hiller, Ramo, Elliott, Smith, Talbot..
The days of temporary plugs are over and $6mill for a starting goalie is completely reasonable.

About 90% of the posters are happy to extremely happy.
I, for one, am ecstatic!!!

I'm thrilled. Absolutely ecstatic.
You just have to remember there's certain posters who are rooting for Treliving to fail more than they are rooting for the Flames to do well
