Flames The hot takes thread

In which you present your hot takes for the future. Ten points for each degree Celsius of heat.

My Hot Takes:

- Noah Hanifin will be an All-Star #1 defenseman by age 25
- Johnny Gaudreau re-signs for seven more years after his current contract expires
- Sean Monahan will top 100 points before Gaudreau does
- Mark Jankowski scores 50 points next season
- Cam Talbot is traded or waived by November 15
- Dillon Dube finishes third among Flames forwards in scoring next season; Andrew Mangiapane fifth
- Glenn Gawdin plays 20 games in Calgary next season

And the hottest take of all:

- Milan Lucic pots 22 goals... and six assists

Edmonton finishes last in the league but has no luck in the lottery and ends up with the 4th pick

That’s a pretty safe bet.

I thought only unlikely events qualify as hot takes.

This thread is a rip off of the AM1260 morning show in Edmonton.

Ouch. Careful, that's hot.

Tkachuk holds out and BT lets him sit and watch the team win the cup.

Tkachuk then signs the same deal offered next summer..

- Frolik starts the year with the Flames, Jankowski and Czarnik don’t
- Flames finish 3rd in the division but win at least one playoff round
- Goaltending still a pain in the ass
- Treliving makes a major add at the deadline

None of those are hot takes, they’re bold predictions. A hot take is an opinion that goes against the norm, like “I think Neal was a great player and Calgary is really gonna miss him” or something.
