  1. Connie is doing a great job with the circumstances presented to him. It's a tough job for a GM to make those trades at the right time and get those draft picks and assets. Flames weren't good enough and that was the truth. 2 draft picks 1st and 2nd and a player for a kadri that's already 35 years old is crazy. Avs know he was vital to their cup win as he had his best season and this year they got a chance to go all the way so that's why he traded two high picks for a aging nazeem

  2. Fans want to bottom out and get studs. Nobody’s holding their breath to win next year either. Just fun being apart of the process.

  3. I love weegs and I love kadri. It sucks when it happens with the trades. But it’s certainly going in the right direction. Thx Connie. (Profile pic, old cowboys tent Connie)

  4. I have one complaint.
    Connies new image looks too much like Treliving.
    That throws me off.
    Something has to change Connie.😂

  5. Fans see you CC and the change you were finally able to bring to the Flames. Time to go for McKenna, a Flames Fan since he was a kid and would love to play here. Mckenna this summer, Makar and a top 5 draft pick next summer. With everyone coming up in UFA and with our Prospects, Stanley Cup in 2030.

  6. Omg i cant relate to the stress of being the flames gm right now.. i liked tre but i think he handcuffed the next gm…connie is slowly but steadily building a team for the future …its really too bad tre messed up signing huberdont…otherwise we are on our way…exciting times coming…we will be a great time ironically after the oil mess up with mcjesus

  7. I can't wait to see what we do draft/trade wise with all these picks. Going to have to be patient but in Conroy and Friends we trust. Go Flames Go!

  8. Finally we are going in the right direction. Get younger get faster. Calgary in a couple years is going to be so good.

  9. Man i could listen to connie for hours…..so passionate…. he should be our next president of hockey ops …. him or iggy for sure

  10. EXCELLENT WORK CRAIG!!! 8 picks in the top 70 in this years NHL DRAFT!! Lets hopefully land McKenna or Stenberg. There are some absolute steals in this upcoming draft and you know were coming to EAT!! Go Flames Go!!

  11. tough job this guy has; GM of a bad team with an old roster; and the old players have been by far their best players.
