Why all the fuzz about Zadorov?
Alvin should be arrested for this steal
Conroy is going to get ripped by the Flames fans. 😂
winner winner chicken dinner
Jim benning would've given up a 1st and Podkolzin for Zadorov
Benning would've tossed in Hoglander and a 1st.
Can't believe Benning chose Jeulevi!
I always liked zadorov when he played for the avs. His contract seems steep but he's also a big bruiser of a player. He lays out hits that make me wish he weren't in the western conference.
Do a trade tree of how all the pieces had to land to get Zadorov
Including Corey Perry incident, it was a perfect storm
this trade is awful for the Flames
This has been a wild ride as a Canucks fan and after all the trades we used to make its crazy we can just keep pulling off good trades this season
Didnt even have the extra cash for a week.These guys like having 0 balance
My Dr and I discussed this yesterday and we both said it's not likely. Well I'll be…
So the Flames have more cap room now.cause they gotta make changes as well.
Hope Calgary kicks but on Sat.Shut the naysayers up.
5D chess move to pounce on the opportunity to clear cap space to Chicago and get a dman that we need on the back end. Alvin trades and drafts have been a majority W's here
Zadorov isnt a defensivly sound player. He makes alot of bad passes and is almost incompetent out there. The one thing he brings is his size and crushing hits. Calgary did ok in getting the picks for him they certainly didnt lose anything in dealing him.
Another shortsighted move by Allvin; sell the future for a temporary fix. The hive mind is so unaware 😂
Npcs down here 👇
so is this effectively
horvat a 2023 2nd and a 2026 3rd for
filip hronek, atu raty, nikita zadorov and 2023 4th
very nice
Not to take away from the moment. But Imagine what assets could have been gathered, and what future this team could have had, if Alvin and company where here earlier to not let guys like Toffoli, Tanev, Markstrom, Hamhouise and more walk away for nothing. Where trending up though.
I’m so happy. Hope he lays out every single team we play 😂
That is all we got for Zadarov?
Conroy is an absolute tool, what a terrible return
As a Canucks fan I am happy to sub and watch more of you
Fleeced calgary and all the calgary flames fans saying hes a 3rd lin pairing when he lays out huby or Kadri theyll be saying we shouldve gotten a second hahahahahaha love alvin is on fire this year
Good pick up
Im perfectly fine with trading away any 3rd,4th,5th,6th etc draft picks because there’s a 90% chance that you are not going to get a regular NHL player with picks that night. This trade is an absolute steal!
zadorov is a bum and a toxic locker room guy, that's why they practically gave him away, they couldn't wait to get him out of there lol
you make reallt good thumbnails though lol
It's a trade. Let's see how he fits in. If it works , then our D has been transformed. I'm waiting to see how they all play in the next 3 weeks.
If you think the canucks robbed the flames when they got zedorov, you obviously know nothing about him. He's a bottom pair defenceman who likes to give the puck away 3 or 4 times per game. The flames got back more than they paid for him, AND the canucks are paying his full salery. Trust me, this is NO robbery
And none of this would've happened if it wasn't for Corey Perry screwing up. Thank you Mr. Perry!
Now please get rid of myers
If tochett made myers looks half decent! Imagine what he can do with zadorov 🌶🌶
Win for both teams. Cgy opens cap space and gets rid of his locker room non sense
This is pure revenge for Canucks fans having suffering through Benning all these years. Amazing things Alvin has done despite being handcuffed by all those terrible Bennings deal.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Overpaid for a 3rd line dman.
Horvat for Hronek, Zadorov, and Atu Raty.
Sensationalizing much? Zadorov isn't going to solve Vancouver's problems. He's a bottom pairing guy who is an adventure on both sides of the ice. I didn't realize VAN people thought the Flames depth pieces were solid gold. The Flames defense looked much more organized without him, which is pretty funny.
The Canucks have been by far the wildest turn around this season. Im not a Canucks fan, but I was fully on board them tanking last season when they sucked so much for the chance to get Bedard. And when they instead traded picks for players I thought they were insane and a lost cause. Everything they did last season seemed idiotic. I thought Miller needed to be traded, probably Boeser too for a lot. of draft capital, to maximize the chances of getting the two hometown players of Bedard and Celebrini.
Then this season absolutely everything just works.
The other one for me is LA. I look at that team and it just seemed old and washed up or full of rookies (basically both at the same time). And yet that also works.
Obviously I am not a GM and shouldn't be. And most armchair GMs would indeed be worse GMs than even the worst GMs in the league.
