I agree with you, I'm guessing its because of his size, 6-5' 238, and he is 18....Originally posted by spikers
I am actually pretty happy with our picks for the most part.
But I am disappointed with Kanzig....2012-13 - GP:70 G:0 A:7 PTS:7 PIM:159.
seriously, we don't need a guy like that, i mean 1 point every 10 games? and 159PIM?
I am sure we could have gotten way better.

I would say the three first rounders (Monahan, Poirier & Klimchuck)will atleast crack an NHL roster (maybe not ours) at some point. Monahan should have a real meaningful career. Poirier has huge offensive upside and is fast and big so he has a good chance to make it. Klimchuck is more of a complete forward so might be more third line type of a player.Originally posted by supe

After that its a crap shoot.... the goon we picked in the third round (Kanzig) most likely can't keep up with NHL speed so who knows with him.
The defensman Eric Roy sounds like he was a likely a first round pick prior to this season.... and he stunk it up on a bad team so you know he can atleast play the game. Has tons of potential, really like this pick for a 4th or 5th whatever it was.
Pierre LeBrun:As long as it's not a 1st or 2nd round pick I'm quite happy with that. If it's a 2nd round I'll still be okay with it, just not as happy :PSan Jose Sharks have traded TJ Galiardi to Calgary for a draft pick.
It's a 4th round pick, apparently.
Oh, I just saw that he's an RFA now. That makes more sense.
TJ Galiardi just made himself a fan.TJ Galiardi @TJGaliardi Wow! My lifelong dream has come true!! #FLAMES
i like the galiardi signing, giving up a 4th isnt too big of a deal and we get a gritty player with speed whos still young. i like the direction the flames are going with signings like this and who we drafted. 1.25 mill for one year is a good deal imo
also its cool to see a kid who went to my highschool play for his hometown team

current ski quiver:
park, all mtn 181 ON3P Kartel 98
park,all mtn: 181 Armada AR7
big mtn, pow: 185 Armada JJ
I like this. I was a fan of his style of play when he was on the Avs and wish we had gotten him before he was traded to the Sharks.
Being a hometown boy is just an added bonus.
Yea excellent. My shinny buddies are excited (cousins with TJ) maybe he will come out for a skate. lol jk

Galiardi signing was a nice move..good 3rd or 4th line guy..4th rounder isnt much at all.....
Not sure about his size. WHL lists him at 6' 5", 238. Hockeyfights.com says 6' 5", 229. During the draft they said he was 6' 7", 241, and the Flames site lists him at 6'7", 241. Could the latter two be more up-to-date?Originally posted by Neil4Speed

Not that it matters. Either way, at 18, there could be some growth yet, if only in weight. Hopefully he can actually play hockey. Maybe they just wanted to replace Keith Aulie.
Surprised they sent a qualifying offer to Nemisz and not Aliu.
Wasn't Nemisz hurt last year? Thought I read somewhere that the flames were wanting to give home one last chance.Originally posted by Quizzes

And Aliu sucks haha. Have much better prospects to take that ice time.
Hopefully Nemisz can redeem himself being a big centreman and all.Originally posted by 88CRX

Aliu sucks, but has size and colour. Haven't had an all white opening night roster in a long time LOL.
Surprised nobody mentioned Tanguay/Sarich being dealt..

i will be surprised if Cammalleri is still in a Flames jersey when the season starts. hopefully Feaster can get a decent prospect or something in return.

as for free agents I would like to see signed and wearing a Flames Jersey?
Danny Briere - Would be interested if signed at a lower cap hit. around $4.5-5M
Mike Ribeiro - would love to see him at $5m
Nathan Horton - I don't know if I would want to pay him any more than his current $5.5M
Iggy is still a UFA, and would welcome him back, but would like to see him come back at a considerably lower salary.
would love to see any of the above make their way here.
