The 2021 NHL trade deadline is almost upon us! The Calgary Flames are decidedly outside of the (Scotia NHL) North Division’s playoff picture! Should they sell? Should they buy? Should they hide under a pile of coats until this whole thing blows over?
We assembled the FlamesNation crew for a roundtable to get some answers.
What do you hope the Flames do at the trade deadline?
Craig: Auction off fringe players like pigs at a county fair. The names dominating trade bait boards (Rittich, Ryan, Bennett) are there for a reason; the Flames have bottom-six/backup-goalie talent that contending teams are sure to covet for their playoff runs.
