AROUND THE LEAGUE - 25-26

[Tciso]

Flames spent a bunch of draft capital to get Nemec, but he was a 2OA just 2 years ago and has a ton of upside. They still have 1st round picks in both 2027 and 2028. I just hope he turns out. The Flames RHD is looking great! Also, according to one Flames insider, Conroy isn't done yet, so we'll see what else happens.

Die, Die, Die a slow painful death dear Flames. Besides that, yeah.

I think they overpaid for Nemec.

Guess we will see. The games against us next year will make him look good, so it will be hard to judge.

Friedman says a billionaire named Hoffman is closing in on an expansion franchise for Houston or Austin.

Fortunately for me (unfortunately for Canuck fans), the Flames are well on their way to having a competitive team. Still have lots of picks. It was a fairly steep price to pay for Nemec, but it could pay off. Also, I've seen somewhere that they could include Nemec in another trade. It'll be interesting to see what happens in the next few days.

If the Flames end up picking Carels or Verhoeff, their defense is looking extremely promising.

I'm thinking this trade points to them taking a big swing on Viggo Bjork, but I guess it could still be one of the D. Bjorck is a lot of people's sleeper in this draft.

Everyone except DeBrusk is anchored here.

Wow. Looks like another pick and a player are also headed to Buffalo. https://x.com/frank_seravalli/status/20 ... 22659?s=20

Ya gotta wonder what Hronek could fetch if Byram snags 4th oa

We might get a comparable return if he's willing to waive.

Even if we do stand pat, it's better than the damage the Balderson's would have done.
