Good point, you would think the GM's would stick to a format to keep the greedy players in check.

I think they should go back to the old system. The players get steady day shift at the mine so they can play hockey in the evening. Something went wrong when players started to get a million dollars a year never mind ten million. Lots of my buddies who are long in the tooth do not bother with NHL hockey any more.

Yep Sportsnet and there is 2 games tonight, Flames V Canucks.. One starts at 7 and the other 8 as one played in each city. I believe Sportsnet is showing all Flames games this season.

No "A" squads played for either team.Don't plan the parade route quite yet.

Pretty much as expected. To be honest. Pre-season though so who knows, Neal is over achieving, trust me.

"Fox reports that Tkachuk is looking for a five-year deal out of the Calgary Flames similar to the one Auston Matthews signed."

I'd like that contract too, doesn't mean I'm going to, or should, get it though.

Yeah I think this one may stretch out for a while. Would be best obviously to get sorted sooner than later, but if he want's to be greedy sit the season out. I hate greedy players.

I actually think there might be some pressure on both sides to get this done before October 3rd. I don't believe the Flames will be able to afford to pay Tkatchuk if he holds out till later in the year. I actually think more pressure might be on Tkatchuk.

Nylander last year his cap hit over the contract is 6.9 million, but since he didn't start until December his cap hit in 2018/2019 was 10.27 Million for last season.

I read an article stating that about Marner too, that if he held out until December the leafs wouldn't be able to get him in under the cap as the hit would be too large for that year, based on how the cap hit would look over a shortened season. Ironically he signed about 24 hours after this article came out.

So as long as this situation applies to all contracts cap hits based on shortened seasons, and where our cap space is currently sitting, if we can't get him under the cap he will have to sit out. Unless he signs an offer sheet. I am not sure holding out for 9 or 10 million/year over 5 years assuming that is 1-2 million higher then where the flames are at. That's 5-10 million which he would lose 7 or 8 million by missing an entire season.

Which could be exactly what Trei is hoping for Tkatchuks camp to fold based on this.

I'd really like to see Gillies succeed but man, the guy has been struggling for awhile now, and he's not exactly lighting it up out there.

I will never understand why the same game has to be shown on 6 different channels. The amount of $$ I pay a month for TV , when there is a game on I should be able to watch it.
So off to Facebook I go.
Go Flames Go.
