Randall Flagg Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) I'm one of the more "talent matters most" guys...but man, Gaudreau would both empty our reserves and make our "tough opponent" problem worse...

Scottysabres Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 While JG is a talented player, is that listing of 5'9", 170lbs on capfriendly accurate? If so.....yikes and no thanks. I'd like to see some Andreychuk net front presence size and skill is all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every single team in the league would want to and benefit from adding him. The only questions are what would it take to acquire him, and it that worth it?

I don’t know. Those might be good trades for Buffalo. I think there’s almost no chance that he is actually even available though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He pretty much should always be looking to see if there's a way to improve the team. (And to be clear, I expect he is. But, except when he actually gets a deal done (trade or signing) we never see that the work is getting done.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched that guy get erased in every playoff series he's ever played in aside from a late power play against the Miller Canucks, which was the worst team I've ever seen in playoff hockey.

It would leave a massive chasm at center that we wouldn’t be able to overcome.

Scottysabres Posted November 20, 2019 Report Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) Apparently something up in Calgary today. I know there has been a great deal of trade talk swirling around the Flames. Derek Wills ✔ @Fan960Wills Bill Peters just told us #Flames have recalled Tobias Rieder and there will likely be more transactions to come today. Stay tuned... 62 1:44 PM - Nov 20, 2019 · Calgary, Alberta Edited November 20, 2019 by Scottysabres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
