Flames cash out on two assets at trade deadline
Moments after the clock tolled, signalling the end of the 2021 trading season, Calgary Flames general manager Brad Treliving didn’t mince words when discussing the departure of two of his club’s players.
“It sucks. It sucks when you move players out.”
While the situation the Flames find themselves in – unloading assets rather than loading up for a playoff run – is less than idea, what didn’t suck was the return that Treliving and his hockey operations group managed to get for cashing out on a pair of assets.
