Sujet: Miller would be ideal but not happening
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gofnut999</b></div><div>Just who do you think JT Miller is anyway.

Ryan O’Reilly did not get that big of a return with 5 years left. Miller with 1, that’s an overpayment.

Expectations of returns have gotten ridiculous on here.

JT likely going to NYR for something along the lines of 1st/Lundqvist/3rd or 1st/Schneider.</div></div>

The point here is that the Flames could probably put a package together that doesn’t ruin the team. Feel free to take a couple pieces off that trade. Going to be tough to convince a division rival to trade an absolute stud to CGY.

Also, clearly you don’t value excellent cap hit contracts. Miller is a perfect fit for CGY, improves their entire 2nd line, and leaves enough room for Treliving to extend EVERYBODY and keep this team together for the next 2 years at least. CGY has to pay a premium to get Miller, and my view is it’s worth it. Adjust the pricing accordingly, this value ain’t a starting point in negotiations.

Sujet: If brad had a brain
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Im not talking about the trade above specifically. But Krebs vs Zary is highly debatable, and Monahan has a 10 team NTC only

I would have moved Coronato as well if push came to shove</div></div>

Agreed. I can’t believe Treliving couldn’t find a way to get this done. A 3-way deal is a bit more complex, but it’s definitely not impossible to pull off to move Monahan somewhere else.

You had one job, Brad. He’s either too lazy to turn over every possible rock to get Eichel, or not competent to pull of the 3-way deal to get this done. Either way, it’s brutal for CGY fans. VGK has ponied up for Stone and Eichel while Brad just watches. A division rival has those two guys for the next 5+ years.

Would he have paid more if CGY was 4-5-0 to start the season? Yeah, probably. A 9-game sample size probably impacted his offer. And that is just bogus.

Sujet: Sabres
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tjm220</b></div><div>Dumping White’s contract is a net positive for Ottawa, Tierney is a one year rental. They are included to make the money work.</div></div>

I get that. But after the Dvorak deal, OTT probably thinks White is worth a late first rounder or more if he can put up 40+ points this season, which is possible. And OTT has cap space to play with. Plus, Tierney is a solid 3C depth veteran that this OTT team needs to have around if they are trying to move out of rebuild/tank status this season.

Feel free to disagree, but my view is that OTT internally believes that Brady and a top 15 1st rounder in a deep draft is going to be worth more than Eichel. And they might be wrong, or they might be right. Either way, I’m betting they wouldn’t make a Brady + 1st + ______ trade for Eichel.

Sujet: If Brady wants out which offer is better
The betting odds have to be a 3-year deal just like Matthew here. Ends with a juicy $9M+ qualifying offer and UFA status at the end, when the cap has had a chance to recover. And gives the player 3 years to prove he’s worth a massive extension, which he will earn.

The Tkachuks are rare breeds that every single team wants on their roster. And their agent knows what he’s doing to give them both maximum optionality in deciding their future.

Teams will line up around the block with bags of cash for Matthew and Brady if/when they become UFA. Signing $8M x 8 years leaves a ridiculous sum of money on the table for Brady, and also closes the door to him picking another team in 3 years (should he want to leave). Optionality = major value here.

$7M x 3 years seems like the only option.

Sujet: Is Monahan actually available
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ConnorMcHellebucyk</b></div><div>i respect you a lot but Monahan has not been playing like a 1C since 18-19. his WAR is around 63 percent. hes a solid 2C. but nowhere near Eichel level. this boston trade is fair price but it does nothing for the flames so they certainly decline.</div></div>

The point Ledge is making here is that CGY shouldn’t trade Monahan unless they are targeting a second trade that improves them at C. Nowhere on this site in the history of ever has anyone tried to say Monahan is on par with Eichel.

CGY should definitely be exploring options to upgrade over Monahan, and CGY has the assets to be a top bidder for Eichel. Monahan would have to move to make that deal work. Unfortunately, I think Treliving is also thinking that keeping Monahan and hoping he can play a full season without injury will improve his value — and he’d also be a decent 2C.

Flames fans want to see more change for the roster, however. And rightly so.

Sujet: Lines with Zadorov and Valimaki signings
It would be amazing if Pelletier came into camp and won that 3LW spot.

I would be surprised if the Hanifin/Tanev pairing got split up. And for that reason, I’m expecting Zadorov to play 2LD with Andersson, which leaves Valimaki + Mackey/Stone/Kylington for bottom pair duty. Not optimal for Valimaki’s development…

My hope is Valimaki and Andersson come to camp at another level and gives Sutter the clear option to roll:

Hanifin - Andersson
Valimaki - Tanev
Mackey/Kylington - Zadorov

I always prefer to see shut down Dmen (Tanev, Zadorov) paired with offensive guys who can skate well.

Fingers crossed for some improvements across the board from CGY’s younger guys this summer.

And of course, it would be a GD travesty if Treliving didn’t pay the fair price to bring Eichel in.
