Calgary trades Frolik to Buffalo for a 2020 4th round pick.

Buffalo trades Scandella to Montreal for a 2020 4th round pick.

Montreal trades Mike Reilly to Ottawa for Andrew Sturtz and a 2021 5th round pick.


Not sure if Frolik will fit-in in Buffalo, he doesn't seem like a hookers'nblow kinda guy.

Are the flames now tanking?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Seems more like shipping a disgruntled player while there was a market. Frolik has a bit of history of not being happy with his playing time in Calgary.
Love the Sport. Love the Team.

Hate the League.

All about cap space. Treliving said it was all about clearing room for another move they want to make.

Now if we could move Ericksson and Beartschi.....
The only HW the Canucks need

“Gorfs” ??? I think it’s a good signing for them. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. They have a good chunk of cap space.

Ya, maybe. Probably take a complete buy-out though. Let me put (ya maybe) into perspective; The E-man gives the A-man the number
to his Swiss bank account. Voilà, home made compliance buy-out that the B-man knows nothing about, hence the term "Poetic Justice"
