“No, the Calgary Flames, I believe, they are totally content on starting the season with Rasmus Andersson. I think that kind of puts them in a little bit of a dangerous spot. What if the Flames are really competitive again? And let’s just create a hypothetical here. Let’s say the Flames are, it’s mid-February, the Flames haven’t traded Rasmus Andersson yet, and they are three points out of a playoff spot, or, let’s say they’re even in playoff location.
I know everyone is saying, oh yeah, plan is plan, we’re going to stick with it, but I think that’s going to cause an interesting dynamic this season, obviously a topic because it’s August 22 and we’re talking about Rasmus Andersson is still a member of the Calgary Flames.
NHL Rumors: Where is the situation with Calgary Flame and Rasmus Anderson
Calgary hopes for the best
I don’t want to say the deal offered to Calgary this summer for Rasmus Andersson is incredible. I think everyone recognizes equally that when you trade Rasmus Andersson, it also means you need to pay for him, which is a completely different set of costs. This is the acquisition cost, plus your cap cost. But you would think that this will make the value between $45-5 million in the $45-5 million earned on the cap this year, which is such a powerful value.
Perhaps the best scene for the flame is Anderson getting caught in a hot start. He is more productive and consistent than last season. I wouldn’t say it was a frustrating year for him, but it could be a relatively average year. This is a consistent double-target scorer for the blue line. He does have some advantages and he will be a strong man for Calgary to replace.
Maybe they can thread the thread between helping their team get a good start, so that they have some senior experience in their roster with some of the young people they are introducing to grab and also get the rewards they want, maybe hope, maybe at the middle point in the season so you don’t have to refer to a little in the same type of dialog. ”
nhlrumors.com Note:
Calgary’s burning GM Craig Conroy not only knows the value of Rasmus Andersson to his team, but in the open market, considering he’s the right defender. It was reported that he just wanted to go to the Golden Knights in Vegas, where he would join his former teammate Noah Hanifin. Conroy wants to keep Andersson because he hopes the flames will be the same as last year.
NHL Rumor: Calgary Flames are not trading Nazm Kadry now
If Calgary wants to make the playoffs, keeping Anderson is part of Nazem Kadri’s equation. Again, nothing is given in the NHL. Everyone thinks Andersson is trading or leaving through a free agent. He could sign an extension with the Vancouver Canucks like Brock Boeser. Remember, everyone thought Boeser was leaving and he stayed, so the choice was still in play.
But for the moment, Rasmus Andersson is staying in the flames to start the season.
