Take a Yakemchuck or Iginla over an American player. They have a connection here already. Deny it all you want. Americans would prefer to play in a US based city.
That’s a no brainer- we should definitely not draft nor acquire American born players
Turbo on point as usual Pinder on DMT as usual
Another reason to draft Tij, he’s born in Calgary, and even if he doesn’t make gigantic money, I’m sure he’ll be ok considering his dad made plenty of money
Bruh Tkachuk and Gaudreau leaving broke yall. You take the best player available. Some americans dont wanna play in Canada just like some europeans and canadians dont want to either. Its a risk you take with all players.
Yes
Dont draft Americans, Canadians and Euro's only. Not worth that hassle
yes
I'm more concerned of the sweds on the team. Lindholm was a cancer, Markstrom is all over the map and Backstrom is the worst Captain in team history.
Pinder can never be wrong. Rhett is 100% right.
I'm sure the oldest arena in the league doesn't help…
Absolutely 💯
Flames need to draft canadian born or european players
Then stop going for american players if they truely dont want to be here and its about winning culture number 1 taxes and money number 2
It should absolutely be a factor. American players don’t want to be here, than we don’t want American players. Draft more Sask kids, they’re pretty good too
YES and Yes. That's why you draft Tij❤
Yea take em and give them away at 26-27 years old and get a good return!!
Pinder WTF have you not witnessed the last two years.
It’s takes 4/5 years to develop and then you finally get good and ok let em go.
lol!!!!!!
Yes, I’d be afraid of American players.
Adam Fox, Johnny Gaudreau, Matt Tkachuk, Noah Hanifin… what’s that expression about doing the same thing and expecting a different result? 🤷🏻
I totally agree. Dont draft Americans. They all want to go home to Mommy eventually.
Didn't even watch the video, but BIG YES, avoid them if possible.
all the players had career years under sutter then cryed he too tough so they all cash in
Pinder you're out of touch and downplaying. The Flames put up their second best season in franchise history before Johnny and Mattew left. There's a big difference between American players and Euro players. Euros have to leave their home country to play in the NHL no matter what, they don't really care if they play in Canada or USA. Americans can have their cake and eat it too, and they're going to start following Tkachuk's lead and leaving as soon as they're able. A few exceptions like JT Miller does not disprove the trend that is playing out before our eyes. Americans are the most risky nationality for Canadian teams to draft and build around right now, and that's just reality.
Avoid drafting clowns
Yes
Canada is kind of a farm league? Ouch
Pinder a contrarian for the sake of being one. lol
