This is the best thing long term for the Flames, but the ownership can never get out of its own way.

"All reports"
NJ own GM said Calgary wanted too much for him...his value also isn't tanking, look at the Flames roster

I dont know where this 'Management Meddling' idea even comes from. From what I can see Conroy has Carte Blanche to do as he sees fit.

There might be 3 guys left from 3 seasons ago.

That was baffling...guess the coach wanted to send a message.
I hope he knows there are other ways to send a message than that loser attitude.

If we’re not gonna play wolf I’m all in for losses.
At least if we play wolf I’ll be cheering a bit for a win.

Meh, who cares. Embrace the losing for the rest of the season, it’s for the best. Quite frankly, finish bottom 10 again next season as well. After that, then start thinking about winning again after you have hopefully added some elite talent to the pool.

I'm just going by what Dreger (who is our assistant GM's cousin) and a couple of the people with inside information on here have said.
It's just a bit crazy to me to not sell a goalie when his value is so high, because goalies are so volatile from year to year.

Kuzmenko has been a pleasant surprise.
His offensive gifts bring back some Kent Nilsson memories.

Most likely "a" report that was repeated numerous times.

As long as Markstrom doesn't get injured, his stock will be just fine. GMs and scouts around the league won't put too much stock into his results to close out the season since the team is in full tank mode, and not roster a lineup that's capable of winning. His performance up to the trade deadline is the potential that can be sold.

Moving Sharangovich to centre worked; let's try Kuzmenko, too!
I realize that the Flames will more than likely trade him but it is fun to have a dynamic player like him on the team.
