Confirmed Trade: [WSH/CGY] Andrew Mangiapane for 2025 (Colorado) 2nd round pick

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

f*** I had hoped they could keep him the team long term. Good luck in the swamp.

Boys, I’m gonna take the L, I think he just killed the Canucks completely clouded my view, my bad

Takes a man to admit the L so props. Guy shows up for the Worlds, but he was pretty mid last year for the Flames.

 

[Paulinbc]

I'm genuinely confused by what Washington is doing. Are they just propping up Ovechkin's corpse to go for the record at the expense of literally everything else? They're not contenders, they're gaining nothing from 16th place, they're collecting meh players on expensive deals. What am I missing?

Yes.

 

[tmurfin]

Solid second liner who works his ass off. A little overpaid, but he’ll chip in. A 2nd is fair value imo.

 

[Bgav]

great trade for cgy imo

 

[Lou Sassole]

Hey if he can be a 20g20a for the middle-6, great

can also be a TDL chip to flip if WSH is out of the race next season

a bit random for WSH, but WSH needs to pick up 30GF at least over last year, every bit helps

Could mean they have a heads up that Oshie isn't gonna play this year.

The thing is there was a point in time where he legitimately was a killer, top 6 player. It was just somewhat short lived and he really cashed in on it.

He’s a totally fine top 9 scorer and he has his moments. With the right linemates maybe he can get to that top 6 level again but it wasn’t gonna happen here.

 

[SnS]

Makes a lot of sense IMO. Especially since there’s a chance Oshie retires this off season if I remember correctly.

 

[LokiDog]

Kuemper + 2nd for Dubois and Mangiapane would have been a steal a year ago. I think it’s been good gambling for Washington.

 

[Double Dion]

Interesting. If there's no retention I'm pretty happy with the deal. Was just discussing a 3rd or Krebs for him with Sabres fans.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Nice. Room for Coronato and Pelletier on the roster.

He’s a solid player. You’ll like him

Not bad. Another good trade for Conroy.

Keep the pick. Choose the player. Develop the prospect.

I think Pelletier has just had too many injuries during development time. He won't have enough runway. His personality will get him this season, but if he doesn't pop I think he'll be gone.

 

[Boomstick]

Glad there's no retention. Good luck in Washington Mangiapane.

When all the contracts on the roster expire.

Calgary giving up before the season's even started.

It's what most Flames fans want so good. Multiple reasons: A) The most important reason which is the Flames don't want Montreal getting our 1st, and B) our team clearly needs a re-build and Conroy is doing everything to signal that even though we're barred from saying the word.

Conroy is doing the opposite of Treliving, trading out guys for picks rather than wasting picks on bums. Guy is super smart and seems to have learned a lot of lessons with Treliving, aka do the opposite of most things Treliving did.

Not bad. Another good trade for Conroy.

Keep the pick. Choose the player. Develop the prospect.

Yup, draft and develop for the next 4 years. Then start going for it. We need a core.

 

[Dog]

Not bad well flames are in rebuild might as well trade Andersson now!

 

[Mike Jones]

You gotta develop those. Nobody's giving up those kinds of players for nothing.

Rebuilds take time and Calgary's has been needed for some time now.

 

[Double Dion]

Calgary giving up before the season's even started.

We have no core man. What should we do? Wolf might be a core piece. Our 2nd best prospect currently is Brzustewicz. You think we should go all in with one potentially core piece?

 

[Master Bill]

The Hagens tank begins!

Then watch him request a trade out to a US team

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

A single second round draft pick....really Calgary?

 

[JKG33]

I'm shocked calgary got positive value for him. Well done.

Meanwhile Washington shooting off their cap space like they're Alec Baldwin on set

 

[Double Dion]

5.8 million for a diminishing asset. Flames are kinda lucky they didn't have to pay to get rid of him.

There was no way that was happening. We could have gotten a 2nd+ at the TDL for him.

 

[Boomstick]

Damn, gotta buy a new jersey.

Late 2nd with no retention is about what I expected.

My lord do we have a lot of cap space now. Hope they use it wisely

I'm a jersey curse. Giordano, multiple Gaudreau's, Monahan, Tkachuk, Mangiapane. of course Iggy and Fleury as well as a few others. Lol.
