What makes you think Marner who has a year left of his contract at over 10.9 (which would be the highest salary on CGYs roster) would be the guy Flames trade all their assets for? As it looks now they are acquiring assets for their UFA’s looking to retool. i think management has accepted that the playoffs this year are unlikely. So they are trying to get assets for guys that are leaving. So why would we pass on getting draft choices and young players and acquire a guy who has to waive his NMC to come to a non playoff team for a year? He walks next year and we miss getting all these assets. Absolutely doesn’t make sense. Flames also need to find a top line centre before they add complimentary pieces like Marner.Sure you do, I think you may have just been reading too many HFboards polls to come to that conclusion
I see, I'm just hoping we can get a guy who projects as a C. With the recent acquisition our D pool isn't as barren as it was. I don't see a guy who will play top 9C in our system right now and the only 2 guys on our roster who can do it are over 30.I think he’d be more of the type of prospect Wpg would be willing to part with. I don’t see them trading one of their top prospects for Tanev. I’d much prefer Lambert, Julien or Barlow. But it’s very rare to see prospects like that get traded for rentals. Lundmark was a guy I wanted the Flames to draft and I’m more familiar with him than a lot of the other prospects. He’s a 2nd rounder RH D man so he has qualities that make him valuable.
It’ll probably end up being a first plus. The Flames are right to make it a bidding war and some team will absolutely get desperate.I think the price is 1st round pick at this point.
Yes a low 1st in value would be my hope. I wouldn't bother trading him if it's less than a 2nd. Ideally I'd like a center prospect that's buried or redundant for another team.I think the price is 1st round pick at this point.
I’d take Barlow straight up if I could. But of course I’m not making the decisions. I remember when Filip Forsberg was traded for Martin Erat. So it could happen.I see, I'm just hoping we can get a guy who projects as a C. With the recent acquisition our D pool isn't as barren as it was.

Jets won't include Lambert or Barlow in a trade for a rental. That's insaneI’d take Barlow straight up if I could. But of course I’m not making the decisions. I remember when Filip Forsberg was traded for Martin Erat. So it could happen.
Are you not familiar with the concept of loading up for a cup run? Your Canucks just paid a premium for a pending UFA that Allvin admitted might just be a rental. I wouldn't be surprised to see Cgy get a 1st + for TanevThe people expecting a 1st plus need to temper their expectations. This is a 34 year old pending UFA, there’s no precedence for a 1st+ in a deal like this. Calgary is not exactly dealing from a position of power here.. he’ll leave in the summer anyways and teams who really want him may just wait

Haha I’m very familiar thanks. There’s stark differences between the two players there. There’s enough money to resign Lindholm and the players are not comparable.Are you not familiar with the concept of loading up for a cup run?

The concept remains the same. Both players are pending UFA'S. Teams pay a premium for guys they think can help a cup run ar every trade deadline. Saying Calgary isn't in a position of power is disingenuous. Tanev will garner a lot of attention and that means someone will pay a premium to get him.Haha I’m very familiar thanks.

I understand what the price is, but if that was such a slam dunk steal then don’t you think a team would’ve paid that already? Sure there’s a chance a team could get desperate but my original point stands that people expecting “a 1st+” will likely be disappointed.LOL how do trade deadlines work
Canucks were reportedly offering their 2025 2nd rounder but Conroy wanted their 2025 1st. So in other words, the current price is a first. And if Monahan can get that, then there's absolutely not reason to think Tanev can't either.
Considering just how many teams are interested, it's not exactly hard to imagine a bidding war driving up the price.
Again, not saying he’s going for a 4th round pick here! Just saying don’t expect a haul..The concept remains the same. Both players are pending UFA'S.

Right shot D are more rare than centre's. How many players comparable to what Tanev offers do you think are available?I understand what the price is, but if that was such a slam dunk steal then don’t you think a team would’ve paid that already?

Monahan is not a valid comparison either. This is a completely different position entirely and centers are of a higher need and lesser quality this trade deadline. The top option left is Scott Laughton

You’re telling me things I already know. Tanev is 34 years old and will walk. Price is a 1st flat. A team could have him for that right now but no one has acted so clearly no one is willing to pay that price. Sean Walker. He’s more valuable than Tanev at the moment due to age/offense/contract.Right shot D are more rare than centre's. How many players comparable to what Tanev offers do you think are available?
No chance in hell.This is really good value. But Marner is kind of opposite of what we need to do. Cowan for Tanev and a 2nd.
I'm hoping. I've said from dat 1 that in a vacuum I think his value is a 2nd and a B prospect, but the real world has more variables and we often see teams overpay for defensemen at the deadline.It’ll probably end up being a first plus. The Flames are right to make it a bidding war and some team will absolutely get desperate.
Does TB even have a any picks left for the next year or two? Leafs pretty sure don't have a 2nd for the next 2 years. Jets and Canucks and guessing if value close he goes to Canucks as he wants to go there. Still owns house there and tight with many on team still.Friedman saying Tampa, Canucks, Leafs, Jets potentially interested.
What is everyone's best offer?
A 2nd + another piece was mentioned by the insiders in the aftermath of the Lindholm trade.
What? Sven was for a 2nd and Granlund was for Hunter Shinkaruk who was already beginning to bust.If the price is a first, I hope the Canucks look elsewhere. Zadorov and Lindholm are fine additions, no need to go crazy giving our future over to Calgary again. Think Baertschi and Granlund...
I agree we can't afford to give up another 1st especially if it's for someone who isn't younger and signed for a decent term.If the price is a first, I hope the Canucks look elsewhere. Zadorov and Lindholm are fine additions, no need to go crazy giving our future over to Calgary again. Think Baertschi and Granlund...
