I am starting to agree with this. What a putrid trade and terrible draft management. This is not looking good right now.

Fire every pro scout employed by this team first (except Loob).
then fire Treliving too. Not just for this trade but for a wholely underwhelming job as our GM.

Yeah. Think that’s a pretty good idea right now.

Fire him, rehire him — and fire him again! Or wait and see how it goes, hopefully there is another trade about to go down....

While the trade will take time to prove its value, at this moment, it’s ugly and I don’t like it. Initial perception is that this is pretty lop-sided - Tre needed a ‘win’ this weekend - this isn’t it.

The guy just added two really good young pieces to the core, while shipping one young core piece the other way (Hamilton).
I just don't get why Fox had to be included.
Frustrating, but not fireable IMO. Especially if Fox was never going to sign with us.

I will say, if his 2nd coaching hire falls on his face like the first one did, then it's probably time to start hunting for a new GM.

For me, this is the third strike of unforced errors for BT and I am simply angry now.
1. Brouwer signing
2. Hamonic trade
3. This
Just bad.

I may be being shortsighted here, but whats the last trade the flames franchise has actually won?? Kipper from sj 15 years ago? Tanguay? Cammalleri?
The flames are a pretty hard to cheer for.
LindHolm and Bennett better suddenly figure their ish out or this team is going to likely suck again.

Hamilton for a 1st and 2 2nds or whatever it was was a steel. It was undone by this move

...not a very good trade UNLESS this was for a culture change...
gotta wonder about dougie...franchise D who's on his third team at under 25?
i think the trade was horizontal at best... now if Fox was never planning to sign here, and DH was an issue in the room...
well, maybe its a deal you can palate...
this is the last chance for BT though...
not sure if hamilton was that much of a steal either...with that 15th pick next four guys picked were Senynshyn, Barzal, Connor and Chabot... plus 2 nds...? i'd have taken any 3 of those guys plus 2 nds instead of hamilton

It's amazing some of you guys haven't been hired by an NHL team yet, you're clearly self proclaimed experts.

If they thought they could sign Fox he's not in the trade. Not that tough to figure out.
So the Flames got two young Top 6 picks who almost everyone thinks will get better for Dougie, Ferland who is not a top 6 forward and a prospect they weren't going to be able to sign. I do not see how this trade provokes this kind of venom.

I think the Flames had a pretty good idea of whether or not Fox was going to sign with them. Perhaps they thought he would not.

For me he's on Strike 2. Its going to be an interesting year for Brad though. Flames stumble out of the gate and miss the dance again, Strike 3.
Strike 1) Coaches
Strike 2) Brouwer/Asset Managment
