Trading for Mercer. Was he a Conroy precious or just a CP precious?

Not sure if it was Conroy specifically, but the organization loved him and it has been heavily rumored he was their target before trading back for Zary.

Would be just more fuel on the fire if it’s true and even crazier if it’s not one of Pettersson or Miller. That team seems to be self-imploding.

Should have asked Vancouver for the 2025 first round pick.

I want to live in a world where the Flames acquire Petterson, and he pops hugely with the Flames.

You want star power, that's your star power.

Only thing wrong with Petterson is he is two years older than Conroys age window and isn't a RHS.

Does it happen? Probably not. But I'd welcome it.

I wouldn’t trade Huberdeau 1 for 1 for Petterson personally. Highly skilled but too passive. Needs to be surrounded with good players to be effective in games that matter and I doubt his teams will go very far with him being their highest paid player. Like his skill, don’t like the on ice person that comes with it.

Well that's a hot take for sure. I would do that trade in a heartbeat, especially when you consider their age, and production over the last 2.5 seasons.

I would absolutely love it if Pettersson would be a part of the Flames. He's exciting to watch, and is a constant threat on the ice. He was a Flames killer since his first year in the NHL, has a great shot, and will be a better option for carrying the puck up the ice than anyone else on the Flames... He just came off 102, and 89P seasons under Tocchet, not in a run and gun system like FLA. Moreover, we have plenty of LWs, both with the Flames and down the depth chart.

Some people here take the pouting in the last playoffs way too seriously. Reminds me of the narrative Don Cherry loved to push about soft Europeans. The kid just needs a change of scenery, and he's as sure of a bet as Eichel was when he hit the market. I would absolutely consider trading anyone not named Parekh, Wolf, and Zary for the guy.

Even if you hate Pettersson, you do that trade simply to rid yourself of an untradable contract. You can then trade Pettersson for a huge return.

Holy moly, if someone called Conroy right now and offered a bag of pucks for Huberdeau you take it. If someone takes Huberdeau at full price you give him away.

Petterson is the far superior player.

Petterson doesn’t fit the overall team character that Conroy is trying to create in my opinion. Tons of skill but no heart at least at this point in his career. Pass

Not sure bringing in a guy who doesn’t like to be around teammates and prefers to be left alone and not be dragged into anything is the opposite of what Craig wants here in Calgary.

Could be wrong but I don’t see a fit.

Is that the word? He's a recluse?

I've been operating on the idea that Miller is a bit of an old school hockey bully and Petterson doesn't work well with that kind of motivation. Was thinking a team with a solid room might see him pop if they acquired him.

I have no idea though.

This is ridiculous, Huberdeau has negative value. It doesn't matter that he has been better lately, that contract is non tradeable.

If JT Miller is an old school bully he’s the guy I ship out immediately forget that he’s 32 and Pettersson is 26.

Seems like he is a poison in every locker room he’s been in.
