Speculation: Armchair GM 2024-25 Season, Craig Conroy's Can Do Calgary Flames

[Anglesmith]

The bottom 10 beckons us.

We say this every time we have a run of games against top teams.

I feel so much more optimistic knowing we won't have to face those teams in the playoffs if we get in.

It's hilarious that Seravali looks 85 but sounds like he's just hitting puberty

Kings just beat Stars in OT...this is not getting pretty for us... I don't understand why Huska keeps relying on Rooney and overplaying all 3 lines above which then leads into exhaustion build up... ideally the 4th line should give you a breather, playing 10 mins and should be a reliable checking line. We currently don't have this.

With Zary soon back, I would imagine Rooney moves into 5th C, but for my life, I don't understand why a well playing Morton has not been called up a good while ago...

 

[Mobiandi]

Yeah this team could seriously nosedive with this schedule

I think there's a high probability that we do. Things tend to get a little more real after the break. The good teams rise to the top and the pretenders get exposed fairly quickly.

It’s like. It’s like we’re not a good team or something.

Problem is that it’s not enough that we lose, the other, worse teams must also win

Don’t see a bottom 10 finish unless we only get like 10 wins in our remaining 28 games

Reunite Solo & Wolf

Connie's comment about pelts

"I've been traded by teams, I've been traded back. You never know."

 

[Bounces R Way]

If Bahl and Zary come back after the break that changes the outlook quite a bit.

Want to see a Zary-Frost-Coronato line

 

[Volica]

Relieved that Conroy continues to say the right things during his interviews. Appreciate the acknowledgement that we’re just not good enough and that Wolf only speeds up the rebuild of 3-5 years by a bit.

Easily are no 1 line

 

[Ace Rimmer]

Just completely re-shuffle the bottom 3 lines once Zary's back.

Huberdeau - Kadri - Coronato
Sharangovich - Zary - Pospisil
Farabee - Frost - Coleman
Lomberg - Backlund - Klapka

I would not object to trying Barrie on RW either.

You had me in the first half, NGL lol

Love your lines, but that’s a hard no on Barrie up front. Guy skates like he is stuck in 1st gear. I’m actually curious to see Hunt in action again, guy is quietly a PPG player for the Wranglers, second in team scoring behind Marty Frk.

It was either that, or see if Frk has any gas left in the tank.
