4-3 Kraken Dunn

Dhaliwal was saying that Calgary doesn't want to move Tanev within the division the other day, they don't want him on the west coast, they don't want him in Vancouver unless we make a stupid offer. I imagine the same could be said of Zadorov. Dhaliwal said the Canucks keep pushing Garland and Beau on Calgary but that won't cut it, a 2nd won't do it either. Calgary wants a top prospect/young player who can play in their lineup. Maybe that's Hoglander but it's hard to gauge how Calgary views him. I think there are teams out there who could offer a Hoglander level young player or better, particularly if Calgary is willing to retain cap (and they should be). If Calgary plans on being competitive any time soon and leaning towards more of a competitive retool than a teardown rebuild it doesn't make sense for them to help a divisional rival. More than likely they're stuck with Huberdeau and Kadri, I don't think they're looking to tear things down. I think they'll try to move Tanev, Zadorov, Lindholm, and Hanifin and use them as a means to acquire picks, prospects, and young NHL'ers, I think they'll try and reload and come back again next season. Dhaliwal should be taken with a grain of salt, but if offers are relatively even it still makes more sense for Calgary to ship their UFA's out east. If we want players out of Calgary we'll probably have to pay more than other teams.

Three-time, he got one with Vegas too

14 goals and 22 assists in 82 games last season, could probably be had for close to league minimum Nobody is expecting a savior, he's simply fun and a great dude Durable, championship pedigree, is known by all of Rutherford, Allvin, and Tochett, reportedly liked by pretty much every teammate I've heard speak of him

Olli Juol- Oh, hold on..

Can't take bottom feeders lightly, players still have pride

Ottawa has a stud and he's locked in long-term at 8.3M 21 and already has a 90 point season to his name, up to 20 in 14 thus far so he's well on his way

Finally

All true

Deja Vu in the form of Kessel working for Rutherford, Allvin, and Tocchet again?

NHL is unoriginal and a bit of a joke, news at 11

Agreed, I've read speculation that McDavid hasn't been playing at 100% and that would explain some of Edmonton's woes thus far If him and Draisaitl can get hot they're hard to stop though, they're legit game-breaking talents I wouldn't be surprised to see them claw their way back into the playoff discussion

I don't think the drama surrounding the Winnipeg roster combined with some disappointing end-of-season results have helped sell the product in Winnipeg. Could be folks have begun to lose hope. If the Sabres start winning their attendance will likely turn, Buffalo is a franchise a lot of folks see as capable of putting an end to their missing playoff streak but they have to actually go out and do it.

My approach to CDC, and now CFF, is that every other forum user is a source of entertainment whether they realize it or not

Not enough Swedes on the roster

4-3 Canucks Myers

Oil are suddenly just six points out of a playoff spot, although St. Louis has a game in hand If they can keep this winning streak going or at least put together a couple winning stretches they could very well climb back into the playoff mix

If Calgary is retaining cap on anyone to extract value from them it probably isn't Beauvillier All of Zadorov, Tanev, Hanifin, and Lindholm would bring Calgary better returns than Beauvillier if they were to retain 50% Can only retain on so many deals, retaining on Beau doesn't really make sense considering the other players they'll likely be looking to trade imo

Hell yeah

Yeaaaah, it's a shame how things ended for him tbh Hansen was a middle six tweener, Hoglander could be one as well, but they bring different elements A Hansen on the current club would go a long ways, he brought speed, a relentless forecheck and work ethic, and pretty solid offensive skills for a guy whose bread and butter was more his defensive play Hoglander doesn't have Hansen's two-way game, I see him as more of a potential Garland replacement if he can reach his potential I won't be upset if he's used as a trade chip if we're getting good value back in a trade Hoglander will be 23 in early December, Podz will be 23 next June, I recognize that young forwards sometimes need more time to develop but sooner or later we need them to actually take steps forward

And gritter, feistier, and likely better defensively Hoglander may have better offensive skills, seemed like Hansen would often get breakaways via his hockey smarts and speed but wasn't able to finish as much as fans would have liked Hoglander will go to the dirty areas and play a tenacious game like Hansen but I don't really think they're similar players otherwise

Flames want a top prospect Sounds like they're more interested in sending Tanev east, they don't want him in the division Imagine the same could be said of Zadorov
