2017/2018 Trade Speculation and Rumors

[mrdonkey]

Of our realistic targets I'd much prefer Sharp, but I'm anticipating Doan.

Big right shot RW who can take some faceoffs.

That description fits two players: Doan or Iginla.

If Iggy doesn't want to be here, it's Doan. Plus all the connections to the management and now Smith.

Ya, but Doan sucks at face offs:

Sharp - 49.6% over 2746 career draws
Iginla - 51.9% over 2746 career draws
Doan - 45.7% over 1298 career draws.

And he's slow. No to Doan.

If it is Doan I'm going to have to stop telling people what a cheap cont he is.

There's a lot of players I wouldn't mind us taking on if we didn't have Brouwer.

But alas, we have Brouwer. A black hole of apathy eating up a spot on our bottom 6 RW.

So I hope Brad has a bit of amnesia tomorrow in regards to Doan and forgets he exists.

Jagr or Sharp I would take as short term guys, just because we need to get stronger on the RW if we want to have any lofty aspirations for next spring.

Cant wait for CP to explode when we hear Shane Doan signs with the Calgary Flames (1 Year 1M)

[rain_e]

Shane Doan? Ugh watching the Calgary Coyotes.

[djsFlames]

I will say though, when Doan WAS good, he pissed me off watching us playing against him just about every game. Such a thorn.

Someone on HF is posting that he has inside information that Patrick Sharp will sign in Calgary tomorrow.

Might be someone just making **** up but for whatever it's worth, Roger Millions seems to be hinting at the same thing and he called the buyouts yesterday IIRC.

[RichKlit]

Is Sharp a fit with the Flames?

[StrykerSteve]

Poking around on Twitter, there is quite a bit of Sharp to Calgary chatter. Doesn't seem to be anything concrete though, just random speculation. There is one guy claiming to have inside knowledge though, probably the same guy from HF.

If (big if) Doan is signed he should not get a sniff of the top line. Keep Ferland there (who you seem to forgot) and Doan and Brouwer can battle it out for 3rd/4th line duties.

Ooops, that's my favourite player too!

I guess Lazar moves over the the RW and Ferland takes the LW spot on the 4th line.

Sharp is one year removed from 76GP 20G 35A 55PTS.

I hope this last underwhelming season was mainly due to injuries. -22 is pretty bad for playing just 48 games. But Dallas on the whole was also terrible at keeping pucks out of its own net.
