Canucks_fo_life Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Flames at this point should just fold, nothing good or great will ever happen with that team. Looking forward to another season of freebie points from the Flames like the last 6 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peaches Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 But they have Karri Ramo and Corban Knight (at a cap hit = to Mackinnon) this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinkaruk98 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Solid signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunningWild Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Yowsa at the cap hit - given the comparables out there. He should have come in the $1M- $1.5M range per year. Not sure what Feaster was thinking.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanAvery16 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 The way the market is right now it's a fair price I guess. 1.5-1.8 range would of been ideal. Flames should have a ton of cap space anyway next few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Brodie was probably their best dman last year, solid signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niloc009 Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Solid (if slightly overpaid) contract. If he just keeps on progressing, he'll get a pretty sweet deal in 2 years, compared to every other decent Flames player in the last 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baercheese Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 TJ represents one of the shiny spots Darryl left behind. Brodie held his own playing top minutes after JBo got traded and is still getting better. 2.15 is a good deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
