Sujet: hanifin finally out of calgary
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>KingofRnR</b></div><div>I’m higher on the need for a guy like Liljegren than Knies or Minten personally. I’d even take Jarnkrok back in the deal for Liljegren

Knies is interesting, but I don’t see the need for Minten whatsoever. Abruzzese is a guy worth considering given his link to Coronato</div></div>

I'll take the bigger better Minten over Arbruzzi. Calgary needs more forwards in the system with some size not more little guys. Both Knies and Minten are NHL ready now too while Arbruzzi isn't even close and may never be. Trading Hanifin for Minten + Knies would also free up a nice chunk of cap space.

Lilly is ok but he's nothing special just another 3rd pair D. In Calgary he'd be the 4th RD behind Andersson Weegar and Tanev. If we trade Tanev picking Lilly up to replace him would make sense. I think the team will extend Tanev if he agrees to a 2 year contract for less than he makes now. I don't think they should extend him just that they will try to.

Sujet: Cgy sends Hanfin to Det
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Real_MC_Hockey</b></div><div>Well as a Flames fan, I know a bit more about the local team and Conroy apprenticed a long time and is very well-liked so he won’t be leaving even with 1-2 big blunders, also because the owner is too cheap to get an experienced and accomplished GM. Anyways, my trade could work with perhaps the 2nd becoming a first but you and I don’t really know how good or bad that McIssac is in reality. Sometimes a new organization makes a player blossom.</div></div>

McIsaac definitely needs a new start somewhere. But I'm afraid he's no longer a prospect but a suspect. It's unfortunate he had so many injuries earlier in his career.

He was a Kenny Holland draft pick and Detroit was high on him IIRC. I won't argue that you know more about the Flames than I do. You see every game.

But what I do know is that's not nearly enough of a return for Hanifin and Yzerman would take that deal and run. Conroy would be the laughingstock of the NHL and be axed immediately.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Real_MC_Hockey</b></div><div>I really do hope you are correct but it may not happen and “asset management “ is what Conroy talked about at his first press conference meaning don’t lose him for nothing like what happened with Johnny Hockey. EDIT: Also McIsaac is only 23 so can improve and make NHL, was a 2nd round draft choice, and is also Canadian so checks a lot or boxes there for Calgary and asset management.</div></div>
McIsaac doesn't have 2nd round pick value anymore. He hasn't for years now. It's like Zadina. He was drafted 6th overall. But he no longer has that value. Far from it.

I understand not wanting to lose Hanifin for nothing like the 🌲 did with Gaudreau. But Conroy can't be giving away his best players for pennies on the dollar either.

Or else he'll no longer be Flames GM.
