The Calgary Flames have traded defenceman Mike Commodore to the Carolina Hurricanes for a third-round pick in Saturday's entry draft.

good we have too many defensman as it is, maybe freeing up room for neidermyer(sp), he was slow and with sutters draft ability this should be a good trade

Nothing wrong with this trade in my opinion. Don't be upset because you bought a red clown wig, j/k.

Thats what I was thinking, is a 3-round pick really going to make any difference?

[Hakkola]

No, but commodore wouldn't make a difference either. Com gone=salary room

Beats buying out his contract.

As much as I like Commodore, he really wasn't a huge asset to Calgary during the playoff run. He sat out most of the season, and played a few games. Granted, he did well, but we already have many able defencemen and Conroy would have been dead last in the hierarchy.

anything sutter does, i agree with, he has earned my respect and i wont ever question things he does. hell we went to the finals last year, becasue he picked up the sharks 3rd string goalie. Enough Said
