Quoting: SomeonesOffended
Yeah plus they’ll make us over pay and there’s nothing smart about that
What I really don't understand about so many trades to the Leafs, is that Leafs really don't need Dmen now
Reilly, McCade, Brodie and even Timmins now are solid. Giordano and Liljegren will be returning soon. Benoit and Lagesson surprisingly are playing well, though maybe I don't want them next 50 game.
So I'm saying, what the panic? , especially if talking relatively little improvement at a high price.
From the Flames POV, I don't think they would particularly don't want to be sellers now since they are a playoff race. Come closer to TDL...they might feel different.
Just for the structure of the Flames long term, I think they should be sellers. They're middling with Lindholm, Hanifan and Tanev. No real point in resigning them cause giving them higher salaries doesn't make the team better. Sell, and use the new found cap wisely next summer.
