Rumor: Pagnotta: "Rasmus Andersson is open to a trade, he would welcome it" It would cost 3 assets...1st rnd pick, prospect, +

Would Calgary be interested in Power for Andersson?

Yes.

So if I'm getting this straight, he wants out of Calgary because he doesn't want to be in a rebuild and MTL fans think he's going to want to go to....a rebuilding team. Got it.

He said in two separate interviews in the last couple of days that he wants to stay in Calgary. Pagnotta is, as usual, out to lunch.

Could be doing the team a solid to keep his value up. Hopefully

The Flames need to try keeping him, but here we are in January again, and UFA to be Dman isn’t signed. Can they get more than they got for Hanifin? If he’s ready to sign a contract, sure. Still think we’re looking at a 1st, similar type of 24-25 year old who needs opportunities, and a prospect. A good but not Grade A prospect.

Every year fans think they’re getting top prospects in these UFA deals and it rarely happen.

He’s not a UFA this year. He’s got another year left and a ridiculously low cap hit for what he brings

Andersson isn't a UFA this summer, he's not until 2026. hey aren't even allowed to extend him until July 1st

Yes.

I imagine Sabres wouldn’t have Power on the block regardless of what fans think.

I’d assume Calgary would be all over Byram + Krebs + pick however.

Knowing the tie to Krebs, the will to get younger.

It’s all moot anyway. Francis (love him or hate him is probably the most in-know reporter outside of Leslie) just threw cold water on it. That all said, not sure what Razzy is supposed to say ‘yeah I want out in the middle a playoff race’.

Said it before, first, c-prospect just doesn’t get it done. We’d rather hold him until next February/march and get the same return.
