Flames put Pelletier on waivers. Lavoie might be safe. There are probably some more interesting options available.

Every team has one or two Lavoie’s.

I’d be surprised if he gets claimed and hope he doesn’t. Team is bound and determined to stick to the cap accrual plan by not putting Kane on LTIR. Time will tell if they are being too stubborn or sticking to a master plan gets us the reinforcements later to win a cup.

yolo. facts fam.

with Brown being waived for the Condors can we please stop inventing narratives in our head about the team and then getting angry over them extremely publicly now?

Brown got flushed.

I still hope that we trade him for a LD prospect with some draft pedigree. We could really use a boost on the farm this year and it would be nice to have somebody trying to push their way onto the roster.

I just don't see the fit for Lavoie here long-term.

I think the fit for Lavoie is as an injury call up in the top 9 on wing and next year Kane is probably traded in the off season, Skinner and Brown sign elsewhere so there is room next season.

just like every rational fan predicted. No freakout or public burst of anger over him was needed and many posters just look foolish now.

I feel like Gleason can be that guy.

Surprised Dermott made it just because he seems to be a Stetcher clone. That said the team is valuing puck movement over size and physicality that can’t move a puck. A good thing when you have the 2 Ferraris up front driving the offence.

who’s the 13th forward now

Kane.

Am I missing anyone? That entire bottom 6 might not piss a drop of offense for 5+ game stretches.
