    Trade him to a « contender » that gets bounced in the first round. Besides Ray Bourque (pre-cap where you could pretty much buy a deep cup run) has any player ever been traded to win a Cup and then actually win?

    Good riddance to all players who don’t want to be here. It just creates a toxic environment for the guys who do.

    That’s ok, we need players who DON’T fan on Huberdeau’s perfect passes.

    Does anyone have access to the article that is posted? Or is this Twitter person credible?

    Why would he? Everyone who’s head isn’t in the sand is reading the tea leaves at this point. This team might have 1-2 more years of juice in them?

    Now the flames are taking a chance towards the deadline, and I’m afraid of what they’ll do if this is a good team. Do they sell for the betterment of tomorrow if this team is first in the pacific? Imo, not a fucking chance. Really wish something got done at the draft, but ah well you know how it is.

    I doubt that’s a credible source

    And anyone saying good riddance can leave with him, he put everything he had into this team his entire career

    He deserves a cup run is is forever a flame

    I’m not going to lose sleep over not signing Backlund in the preseason. I generally think it is better for the team that we make a fair offer next offseason and let him test free agency than give him too much term now.

    Lindholm and Hanifin are the two players who are too valuable to lose in free agency. Everyone else is nice to get a return for but we need something for these two.

    He will be a solid third liner somewhere else.

    He wants a new challenge and to compete for a cup.

    Any team would be lucky to have him both on ice and off.

    Holding out hope that at retirement we can do a one-day contract so he retires a Flame.

    Trade em at the deadline for a ransom.

    It’s a good thing . When we were scoring a ton of goals and winning games he was invisible other than killing or penalties . He would be a great fit for a team with some firepower that needs that kind of 3rd/4th line center and hopefully gets us something in return .

    Trade him to the team with the best package even if it’s a bottom feeder.

  13. rothtravo

    He’s saying he decided not to sign a contract with the Flames this off-season, not that he won’t sign one eventually. If you want to twist words and try reading between the lines, go for it. I on the other hand will wait to see what happens.
