I was reading the Panthers board and many of them were over the moon thinking how Tkachuk will change the playoff culture of the team...and im thinking....have you guys seen this guy in the playoffs....very underwhelming lol... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapShot Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I went from pitying Calgary fans to envying them pretty quickly. Don't know how well this will work out in the long term, but in the short term they've managed to turn a bad situation into a salvageable one. They have one of the best Ds in the league now, while we have one of the worst. Calgary will finish ahead of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At best we can call this a lateral move without seeing how they look next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty solid throughout all positions, except they still might not have that impact #1 d. Regarding the other moves...in the grand scheme of things they aged Tkachuk by 5 years by replacing him with Huberdeau, lost 90-100 points in Johnny....and that first rounder might help them like 5 years from now. They can probably trade one of their D now to fill holes in the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m guessing they’re talking extension with Weegar right now and if they can’t work it out, they’ll flip him, but if they can, yeah another dman is likely going.

Cowtown was down 82 goals per year with Tkatchup and Jonny leaving and now replaced 30 with Hubbiedoo. But they also happened to be great at goals against. They may end up winning as many games but they will be tighter games, I expect a lot of OT. Edited July 23, 2022 by JM_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weegar was the worst Florida player in the playoffs. He stunk bad. So he’s perfect for the Cowpies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Funny thing is Calgary is one of the best fits for Kadri. The guys they got here and the way Sutter coaches. ‘Sutter would love Kadri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putgolzin Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 2 hours ago, mll said: Garland has limited trade value - would probably return less than Bjorkstrand. If you attach him to Miller it would probably diminish the return because it will make it harder for the acquiring team to extend Miller in a year when Garland uses up 5M of cap space. I guess Garland is debatable - I think he’s got great value. Thats not my point though - that was simply an illustration to create a proposal where Miller was the centrepiece rather than the only piece. And my point is that this trade seems to say that Miller’s trade value is still very high. I could be wrong on that, but Tkachuk is in a whole other echelon than Schneider or Kakko or whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua59 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 12 hours ago, Devron said: At first I thought Calgary won this trade but… Huberdeau and Weegar are both UFA’s next. Yup. Seems they might have put themselves right back into the pressure of resigning the players that just showed up. I think their defense is better with Weegar but as you point out the FA animal rears it's ugly head again. Are the new guys going to embrace Calgary or be pis$ed at Florida trading them out of Florida? Glad Vancouver isn't biting on something like this for Miller. They have a year to sweeten the pot for these guys to want to stay. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jester13 Posted July 23, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2022 1 hour ago, Alflives said: Garland’s best value to us is clearing his cap space. Best move is to get picks for him. Don’t take back money, and clear his 5 mil off the books. 1 hour ago, mll said: Bjorkstrand the better player and look what he returned. Garland is undersized so there's probably quite a few teams already skeptical because of that alone. He doesn't bring a lot of speed, is not a high-end goal scorer and doesn't play the direct game that teams are looking for in the post-season. Doubt they can expect much of a return given his 5M cap hit. I don't want to de-rail this thread, but Garland is not who we should be unloading to clear cap. He's a play driver on every line he gets put on. We should be focusing on getting rid of dead weight to clear cap, not our cost- controlled best 5v5 player. I digress. 1 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
