LIMITS: Why Calgary Flames Should TARGET Shane Wright But REFUSE Top Prospect Bids, First Rounders

1. Should the Calgary Flames pursue Shane Wright, and at what price would you stop?

2. Probably not, we need to go all in on what we have now. Prepare for Maddox Shultz 2028 and Landon DuPont 2027

3. If Calgary did acquire Wright the very first thing required would be for someone in the locker room to beat the living bejesus out of him just to set the tone.
   Rinse and repeat as required.

4. Rech and Pot won't be here for another season or longer so taking a chance on him but no bad trades like Nemics.

5. stay away from Shane Wrong he's third line player at best and this kid has attitudes

6. Offer any 2 or even 3 of Hub, Shar, Strome, Tsy, Zar, Gross, Stromgren, Orhmann, Suniev plus a 2nd round or 2 and 2 2nd round picks.

7. Sort of off-topic… but i'm not a fan of the LA Kings black/silver jersey and also not a fan of their logo. Their logo has the old tired font with trailing lines, weak small city text, small insignificant crown and a lot of empty space inside the logo. And the shape of the logo reminds me of the the car company Chevy logo. Even their other logo with the all caps LA seperated from the crown looks odd and boring.

   I really hoped they went back to the retro gold and royal purple design with the crown as their logo. Its simple, unique and really recognizable and, in my opinion, so much better than the boring "chevy" logo

8. Wright seems like a bad attitude type. He could just be getting traded again in a few seasons if he's still struggling.

   I wouldn't give anything more than Zary + a 2028 2nd.

9. The very very best & final offer should be Zary, the 2027 & 2028 Vegas & Colorado 2nds & thats it. If they dont want the 2nds they can have Sharangovich & Ohrman or Stromgren. Sharangovich has negative value so doubt he would be a Seattle consideration. If Montreal want to give more let them.

10. This is exactly the type of deal the Flames should go for. They could have decent depth down the middle: Wright, Reschny, Stockselius, Hextall? Potter feels more like a winger then a Centre to me but throw him in there as well.

11. Zary and Whitecloud for Shane Wright

12. keep Wright as far away from this franchise as possible

13. Go get him. This feels like a Sam Bennett type scenario and man it'd be nice to be on the other end of one of those for once.

14. Shane Wright would learn from Backlund and Frost and Strome all very good with young guys.He was a star player in Junior made the OHL as a 15 year old. Was rated 1st overall his draft year.He is 22 start on the 4th line and slowly move him up the line up. He may stop at 2 he maybe is a first line guy time will tell.

15. I don't think the recent moves say 2 or 3 year's down the road. I am loving the possibilities

16. We already have 2 Center's with Hextall a year or 2 away. Stick with what we have, re-sign Frost. Let's rock this

17. He ain't worth a first round pick let alone an additional top prospect. Forget it. He has an egotistical attitude that is not wanted in the dressing room.

18. Slaf almost had as many points last year as Wright does in his career at this point. For a guy who said he deserved to go 1st overall he isnt putting up much of a competition in stats terms. Needs an attitude adjustment indefinetly but an opposing canadian market. Who has a history of beating the team who he believes screwed him (montreal) may be somewhere he would embrace. For the right cost it would be worth Calgarys time. no more than Zary a 2nd and maybe like Mews?

19. If Zary is on the block already, and is only 24 and a former first-round pick also, the transaction could make sense. We don't have another 1st round pick in 2027 however, so we won't be trading that. If you could offer a second and a respectable prospect in the deal, I'm curious if it would pique Seattle's interest or not. Say it was William Stromgren who has talent, but probably isn't part of our long-term plans anyway. I'm sure there are probably better offers out there, but then again Wright's stock value has dropped rapidly, so kicking tires would be worth it. If the price is really too high, of course you don't pull the trigger. But it could be lower than people think, and if so we should at least find out. The locker room will make sure there are no further attitude issues if that's indeed still a problem.

20. Nope dont need him. Gave off Lindros vibes with his attitude. Dont need that tainting the team. If they were to get him, he would 100% need a attitude adjustment real quick. Tell him he can learn to smarten up or conny is gonna call regher and phaneuf and make him do dump and chases to the corners with them 😅

21. I would take that 2029 1st next years 2nd and Hextall for Wright and some sweetener like a Sale or Firkus

22. Wright for Zary

23. I can confirm Craig has had no interest in acquiring Shane Wright.
    Next years draft is loaded with centerman and the Flames can definitely land one of them.

    We need one more year, one more draft a top pick maybe win the lottery for our new building.

24. Zary and Wright could both use new changes of scenery. I dont think its realistic to expect a one for one swap, but Zary and a second and third round pick? I don't think Wright holds all that much value to be honest but it could be worth gambling on him for the right price.

25. His history reminds me of Jonathon Hubeadeau. So NO.

26. I disagree. Wright sucks and so does his attitude. I'd be pissed if we used significant assets on him.
