BAHAHA

What's Calgary's protection list look like. Assuming Lucic doesn't waive, is Dube going to be left unprotected?

FLA just fleeced you.

You think? I think you're sleeping on Denisenko. He is gonna be a top-6 RW and has the value of a mid-first while Acciari and Gudas just balance the cap. Don't see us getting much higher than a mid/late 1st+cap dump back, and Denisenko is definitely more valuable than a mid-first in this draft imo

Assuming he doesn't waive it would have to be one of Backlund or Dube exposed, which is why if we make this trade we could protect both because Monahan would be gone. We could expose Acciari, who is really only a small cap dump/ effective 4th liner and replaceable by a guy like Derek Ryan, and keep both Backlund and Dube. But still all indications point to Lucic waiving and we won't have to worry.

Nope Backlund IMO

Backlund and which other forward???

WDYM?

Two forwards, under contract, have to be exposed. Backlund would be one.

Sign one of our depth players and expose them with Lucic

Yeah, Monahan is the best player in the trade, but the Panthers are giving up three cost efficient players, so IMO no way Florida does that trade. Besides they have high hopes for # 1 pick Denisenko.

Serious question for Flames fans, what has happened to Monahan? His production has seriously tailed of since 18-19, is it him, linemates, injuries or what?
