The western Canadian tour continues.

Incredible how many chances this guy gets.

 

[canadianmagpie]

Another former Canuck, of course he goes to Calgary.

 

[AveryStar4Eva]

Shocked he is able to get 2M good for him

 

[MatthewFlames]

Flames have given the kids chances but they haven't been good enough. All these vet signings (Lewis, Richardson et al) will try and impress on the Flames core the Sutter 'how to win' approach to the game.

 

[CalderSchmalder]

Another former Canuck!

 

[FlamesFan18]

Brutal. Michael Stone is better than this guy

EDIT: oh good we have both

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

3rd overall pick

 

[M2Beezy]

As a Canucks fan Man I love this signing

 

[Bounces R Way]

1.95 million for a new vending machine

 

[Canucks LB]

2m

Good for him

 

[Jerkbait]

Good signing . A tad expensive but steady play with size. He was decent in Pittsburgh.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Good for him.

 

[cudi]

holy shit thats a lot of money for what he brings to the table, which isn't much.

 

[Ainsy01]

pretty sure half the team hates him, but okay.

 

[TooManyHumans]

Incredible how many chances this guy gets.

I wish I'd get just one chance at $2 million.

 

[Artanis]

Jesus christ how does he warrant a 1.95m contract?

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Bruh what? Gudbranson has literally been a below replacement level player for the last 4 years. How is this anywhere above league minimum? Could have had Stone (who is better) for 800k

Edit: Apparently Flames just signed Stone for 750k as well, now this signing makes even less sense

So the idea is if anyone hacks Gaudreau's hands this year, they get their face punched in? There are a lot of goons on this squad now.

He's great at standing up for teammates. Terrible at hockey tho

 

[banks]

The old adage "you can't teach size" shouldn't be enough to get this guy nearly 2 million.

 

[Breakers]

I hope Calgary likes unforced icings.

nothing satisfies Guddy more than hammering the puck down the ice for absolutely ZERO reason during a line change forcing his tired teammates to stay on the ice.

He has no clue how to transition the puck

how freaken slow can the Flames make their D...
