I would have preferred Arizona getting him, then having the franchise moved to Seattle, then be able to watch him live.

NHL moves a team out of a major market, they lose their TV deal

Cheap shots and dirty plays? I saw Engelland and Dorsett scrapping then Hamhuis jumping in to make it 2 on 1. Then proceeds to help Dorsett wrestle Engelland to the ice!! That was such classic Nucks dirty play and cheap shots led by their embarrassment of coach! You are just jealous that the Flames beat down the Nucks and because the Nucks are a team led by two sisters. Go Flames Go!!

Yet the only discipline was Hartley being fined. Its almost like you're not telling us what really happened. And Engelland is the only player who had his actions reviewed by the leagie

You are clueless, but we like it that way

and I bet my sister is a better hockey player then you are, wake up and smell the real world, your misogyny puts you at a distinctive disadvantage.

The flames beat down the Canucks really?

"embarrassment of a coach"
you mad bro? that the flames made the playoffs even though you guess they would finish last when you were having drinks at the bar last year?

you're an embarrassment for calling hartley an embarrassment, and hamhuis is a joke for jumping in against engellend.

Not to mention that richardson joke for throwing punches to a downed opponent

how embarrassing

Sorry, I don't speak Walmart.

Fwiw I don't think McDavid will be as good as Crosby. Crosby scored more at a younger age with worse teammates in a lower scoring CHL league
- AlexF

Don't buy that for a second. The "Q" is notoriously a high scoring offensive league, the OHL is a better/tougher league to play in, much like the WHL.

I'm still angry

In the ohl the only prospects who didn't move on was EVAN McEneny

I actually think mcdavid could have been better then Crosby but Edmonton and the NHL ruined that.

Gaunce cassels Dorsett

Bottom 6 is set for next year. Your welcome.

He'll be fine there. Contrary to popular belief Howson is a smart'ish hockey guy. Look at Columbus, they've got some great young players because of him. Did he make mistakes, sure, they all do, but they'll address goaltending a defence now that they have some pieces to move around.

Glad you asked. At this point I don't know. Lots of possibilities, trading away burrows and higgins.

They better be quick about it. If they can't put a competitive team together by the end of his ELC, they could get bent over.

I was just doing some research.
In Sidney Crosbys first year he did not even improve the Penguins. It wasn't till Malkin came around, that pitt doubled their points.

There's quite a kaleidoscope of emotions in the Flames thread, he's getting everyone to use their calming, breahting exercises.
