Kragar Posted July 20, 2022 Share Posted July 20, 2022 Well, I guess they'll have enough cap to sign Mangiapane after all. Unless they pull off a heist in trading MT, it looks like it's be ugly in Cowtown next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were banned though, although they likely found their way back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every team drafting top 10 hits or misses that's a fact of life. But if Calgary starts a rebuild with "the guy everyone says they'd have chosen" and makes bank on his return, then also makes bank off of other assets as well and manages a faster turn around than Vancouver has with the assets they have (imagine trading Markstrom and Tanev for good/great returns as well) the crying from this forum will be deafening. It's a very very real possibility as well. LA did it in 4-5 years or less. Anaheim 4 years or less. Our division has teams that have turned things around quickly and Calgary has the assets on hand to do the same as well 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some here need to learn no gm is perfect even in the top 10. Get over it. Brian Lawton Alexandre Daigle Patrick Stefan Nail Yakupov etc. And those are just 1st overall examples of misses. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tkachuk played 6 years for the Flames, he is just using his contracted right to play where he want S for the lady half of his career. Even ignoring all that, take a look at the assets Calgary will have from that pick vs. What Vancouver does. Still much smarter to pick Tkachuk and no one owed Benning an apology for screwing up another top ten pick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lot of revisionist history going on. Jake was a more egregious miss than Juolevi wadr. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juolevi went where he should go in that draft class. Everything that happened afterwards would have required clairvoyance from management and that's not a realistic bar to hold them to. 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway you look at it, Calgary is going to be a diminished team next season. You don't just take 220 points out of a lineup and not have a falloff. There is no one player that Calgary would trade Tkachuk for who would meet either Gaudreau or Tkachuk's production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
