Sujet: Calgary offseason shakeup
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gamblewizard98</b></div><div>I think its pretty fair. Florida is getting an elite winger in his prime with Gaudreau and a high upside young roster player in Dube. Calgary gets the young center prospect it needs and a middle six forward to replace Gaudreau on the left side. I assume Gaudreau would agree to resigning in Florida before the trade like stone did, otherwise, yeah Florida might not do this deal.</div></div>
I don’t think you’re way off or anything but there’s no chance Florida moves Lundell. They are gonna want to see what he turns into. He’s such a high end prospect. I’m a Flames fan and of course I’d make this deal from their perspective. But we know what Johnny is and what he isn’t. Dube could still get better all around and I hope he does. But Lundell is expected to be a franchise centerman who could turn them around for the long term. I don’t think Johnny and Dillon have that same potential impact in Florida.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jeuck75</b></div><div>McDavid is SOOOOOO much better than Crosby it's not even funny!! Could you imagine picking a not even top 5 player anymore over the BEST sports player in the world?!?!?!</div></div>
You’re the one who said you wouldn’t take “the entire team” for McDavid. And while that’s obvious because of the salary cap that’s also the main problem the Oilers have been dealing with since their glory days of the 80’s. Their roster today is built to score goals. And that sounds fine and like a good strategy but they are paying 21 million dollars a year to just McDavid and Draisaitl. Edmonton has been riding mediocre goaltending and defence for decades. They need guys like Nurse to become very solid defensively. Hopefully guys like Ethan Bear, Evan Bouchard, and Philip Broberg can keep developing all parts of their game. It’s fun to watch the highlight reel goals McDavid and Drai pull off. But it’s gotta be exhausting being an Oilers fan having the best player in the game and hoping he can outscore the entire team across from him. Every. Single. Game.

Sujet: Another shot
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>UnkleRakesh</b></div><div>You also have to consider debrusk has a potential of 10yrs team control vs JG walking in 2 years is it?

How’d he do in the playoffs? Gaudreau isn’t a perfect player and he’s fallen out of favor with his coach who just came in. Debrusk has more size which would help when they get beat on by EDM and MTL.

I’m not even sure I want JG at the end of the day based on playoff performance, but I would like him to help us make the playoffs which I think he will.

What do you add or change to make that deal work or do you know nothing about the Bruins because they are on Canadian TV twice a year?</div></div>

Yeah, you’re not wrong about any of that. Johnny helps the Flames get into the playoffs and I only watch Flames games so I don’t see Boston or Toronto much either for example. I guess I’m just tired of other fan bases undervaluing Johnny, only Calgary is allowed to do that haha.

I just feel like Boston isn’t a good trade partner for Calgary. I’d rather trade Johnny plus a pick to upgrade on him rather then downgrade skill wise and get a more physical player with term.

And then Hanifin. He’s finally having the season everyone was hoping he would after acquiring Tanev. Best situation to sell high I suppose. But I’d rather him be a future top 2 dman here as opposed to somewhere else. And I assume the management group would prefer that as well.

At the end of the day none of us have any real gm experience but if a cynical Flames fan thinks you are undervaluing Johnny then you certainly are. I just don’t think we can put together a package that Calgary will like or that Boston fans/management would agree too.
