Allowing Benning to trade 3 expiring deals and 1st and 2nd round picks for OEL tells you all you need to know about ownership.

Missing Garland. That deal is biting our ass now. Depends now on if Garland is moved & for what.

He's overpaid but he's effective. Another small guy though and a team who's top 2 young players are undersized.

Hindsight for some I guess.

It's been an ongoing discussion about their abilities for years.

Last season more so given the opportunity for building long term & cap flexibility was on the horizon.

Who brought in those cap problems we traded to AZ?

He’s tradable.

Yes our top talent tends be soft but very skilled. More size has been added & some in the system.

Same dude who gave it one more kick at the can. Also smells of FA.

If nothing else at least new management is deeper & improved & hockey ppl are running the show.

For sure. No Green. Playoffs very likely.... my heart sank when Benning signed Green. Same heart break with the roster by the looks of it...
- boonerbuck

Yeah, I certainly hated the Green extension, and the media pushing for him to be brought back, but never thought the team would be so flat, same group with total night and day different results just screams how bad Green was.

Like golfing stated, feeling much more upbeat this year.

I want too see more energy & better starts to games. That alone was the biggest problem in ‘21.
- Nighthawk

That's for sure and the year before and the year before.

What if Horvat nets a great return and Miller signs a lucrative 5 year deal?

There are so many ways this can go down.

Gudbranson had 6 goals 11 assists last year + he fights, kills penalties @ 2 mil
Myers had 1 goal, 17 assists + he turns the other cheek, kills penalties @ 6 mil

You guys are stuck with that 15 mil 2nd pairing unless you send assets with them.
Get over it!

Lol. Get back to your own thread and whine about losing Gaudreau for nothing. Or if you're bored of that how about the 15 mil he left on the table to get away from the shiitshow in Calgary.

Personally, I would love that.

I'm watching highlights from Flames vs Oilers series. Marky was Cloutier bad.

I’m already excited to see how the team looks in October. Pettersson is gonna get 90+ points next season #MVP

Which one?

I think Horvat would bring back much more than Miller to be honest.

Panties in a bunch ppl won’t be mollified by that at all 😂

If Horvat and Miller both sign, there won’t be money (if he has a good season)
- 1970vintage

This is exactly what I meant. I don't think a 26 year old is gonna have too much loyalty to a city, or country for that matter, after on year ... no matter how beautiful it is. Plenty of russkies around the league on other teams to pal around with.

Can't wait to see how these coaches run their camp and preseason.

I predicted Green would run camp the same way with no changes after once again he gave his "scoring forwards added so 3 scoring lines" speech then once again refuses to split Bo and Pearson in the pre season stating they are his shut down line. Once again it was one scoring line and multiple two way combinations that couldn't score 5 on 5... I said it the camp the previous season even... Green will never come out of his comfort zone with his lines no matter how much offense you provide him.

I think Horvat would bring back much more than Miller to be honest.
- golfingsince

They're both 30 goal scorers. Horvat younger. Has way more positive energy around him with coaches, gm's, players fans and media. Probably a better deal in most GM's eyes...

Looks a little thicker especially in the legs.
