But then you're adding ~25 games of Mangiapane, giving you very little idea if he actually fits on the roster and is worth offering another contract to. While still paying a 2nd.
Confirmed Trade: [WSH/CGY] Andrew Mangiapane for 2025 (Colorado) 2nd round pick

Xenforo Cloud has scheduled an upgrade to XenForo version 2.2.16. This will take place on or shortly after the following date and time: Jul 05, 2024 at 05:00 PM (PT) There shouldn't be any downtime, as it's just a maintenance release. More info here

Especially day 1. I hope Conroy keeps his cheque book in his pocket day 1. If there's a guy who has his market evaporate and decides to do a 1 year deal to rehab his value then that's a guy I'm fine with signing. Otherwise look at what San Jose did with Detroit and see if that's out there.
Cause of Mang? They need roster spots on the wing for Pelletier and Coronato.
I mean if we go into the season with 25 million in cap space, ya it's going to be a rough season.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is being foolish
Lol he played on a line with Backlund and Coleman. I think anyone who plays with them would have those stats.
I liked Bread, but he is a solid 3rd liner. Nothing more.
He played on a line with Backlund and Coleman yes. Because he's a good defensive player. His best season defensively was actually with Derek Ryan and Garnet Hathaway. His 2nd best defensive season was with Tkachuk and Backlund. He mostly didn't play with Backlund or Coleman in 2022-23.
That’s the plan, now get Andersson, Weegar and Kadri (and what else we can sell) out the door.
Save money, we are going to suck for a while, the owner probably wants at the floor.

Funny how the Caps players who were run out of town in Calgary seem to have some of their best games when they play the Flames.
I wonder if the trend continues next year?
The Hagens tank begins!
Then watch him request a trade out to a US team
Please don’t say they lol.

I knew the Flames would trade him. He just isn't that good of a player, not worth his cap hit. He will never repeat his 37 goal season from 3 years ago.

Probably not a bad year to start a full rebuild for the flames hopefully minus the obnoxious part.
He was scoring low 20s from the 3rd line from most of it I think ? That's what made him good I thought

Daily Faceoff has no clue. At least use the depth chart from CapFriendly before it is offline forever
Oshie probably won't be 2RW in which case Protas and Milano will get opportunities in that spot

They want to be out of the rebuild by 2027.
We’re in for some years of pain; the aim is to go top 5 probably in 2025 and 2026 in terms of draft.
Great move by the Flames. Thought that to get a 2nd, Flames would have to retain.
With that being said, great trade for the caps too. Yeastmode is criminally underrated. He produces well 5 on 5. He is more physical than you expect for his size, and he doesn't get scared of anyone. Goes to the dirty areas, and is reliable in all zones. He just isn't a PP guy for some strange reason.
Focus on what he does 5 on 5, and you will love him. Unless he gets hurt, Washington can't lose this deal anyway, as he is likely to garner this value at the trade deadline if not more. This is a contract year, and i bet he produces, especially with a change of scenery.
Washington wins this trade because they get a pretty good goal scorer at even strength, who can also produce on a checking line. If he bombs for some strange reason, they can still probably flip him for another 2nd. I would bet he does well, and if Washington is out, they may get a higher return at the deadline.
Calgary wins because they get even more cap flexibility to sign some UFAs at the deadline for higher value/low term, and flip a guy with retention at the deadline. Maybe they act as intermediaries, or accept a couple of bad deals with sweeteners. There will be lots of options. The last thing I think they will do is blow their brains out signing UFA at big dollar deals with term.
Calgary is in a rebuild, but they are not interested in burning it down and tanking. Conroy wants to keep it somewhat competitive, which I infer it to be a bunch of 4-3 losses, not 10-2 demoralizing spankings. Calgary will be players in the UFA market with an eye to not being terrible, as well as weaponizing their cap space.
I think both teams win here. Good job.

Yesterday folks were saying Mangiapane wasn't worth a 2nd without full retention, today a 2nd is a disaster.
In reality a 2nd is fine, both teams should be happy, I'm happy with it from a Flames perspective. If Bread can bounce back it could be a good gamble for the Caps.
