flames roster: where do we need help?

yup thats been the problem for ages can see why theyre looking at brodie now

yup brodie's got some baggage but he'd be an upgrade over what we've had out there tbh he can actually pass the puck

yeah that baggage is some red flag stuff honestly think we gotta look past that idk man

idk either section honestly think its better than nothing at this point man

yeah i agree its better than nothing at this point man, can't have any worse than what we've seen lately

idk man i agree its better than nothing but dont wanna settle for "better than last year" at this point honestly

tbh i think its better than nothing at this point man, brodie's gotta be an upgrade from valimaki idk how that even happened last year

i kinda gotta agree with you there, brodie was a steal tbh i think hes a solid upgrade over valimaki @section7cgy honestly thought he was done for good after last year

yeah ikr, brodie wasnt even supposed to be part of our future after last year lol didn't exactly get my hopes up for him tbh

yup cant say i blame you for being skeptical after last year, still feeling pretty good about brodie so far though man

@FlamesLifer cant say i blame him for being skeptical after last year, valimaki was a big letdown tbh

tbh i still think valimaki was a misfire and we dodged a bullet getting brodie back man he's def an upgrade but idk how long he'll stick around

i think brodie's a big win for us, but ngl we still need more depth on d, especially in the lower pairs man @chris_flames i feel you about valimaki being a misfire, idk how he ever made it to the NHL honestly

yeah valimaki wasnt exactly a game-changer and i still think we're better off with brodie tbh @FlamesLifer gotta agree on that man

yea valimaki just got exposed out there hes got some sweet skills but cant seem to put it all together on teh ice, still think we shoulda gotten someone else from draft though

@andy_v I think you're being kind with "sweet skills", he's been a shell of his former self here - still don't know how Yzerman saw something in him @FlamesLifer

@lottoballlarry: yea he was always overhyped imo and it's weird how some of our execs thought they were getting a franchise d-man outta him tbh

im kinda with u on that larry, they def saw something in vali that i dont get lol and i think we still need a legit dman to solidify our 3rd pairing imo

yeah that third pairing has been the weakest link for us and i'm still waiting to see what we do in free agency imo @andy_v had some good points about vali tho man

idk how yzerman saw it either, maybe he had a different vision or something, but i still think vali's gotta find a way to get back on track honestly

tbh i agree vali has always been overhyped and it's weird they thought he was a franchise d-man lol his game just dont translate to the big league imo @andy_v had some good points about him too tho man

yep i think @larry's got a point, vali just dont have that level of upside anymore, and we cant keep running him out there imo @andy_v probably sees somethin in him tho man
