| #1 Posted on 1.10.02 2014.06 Reposted on: 1.10.09 2018.19 | So, today the Calgary Flames traded C Jeff Shantz, LW Dean McAmmond & D Derek Morris to the Colorado Avalanche for C Chris Drury & F Stephanie Yelle.
Any comments?
I think it's a good trade. Personally... But I can be wrong... Promote this thread! | | Socks

| #3 Posted on 1.10.02 2100.22 Reposted on: 1.10.09 2100.42 | I think it's good for Calgary as well. My only worry is that Calgary is cursed with a history of bad trades...which means Drury will tear his ACL two games in and Morris will win the Norris Trophy.
But...let's hope not. | dunkndollaz

Rumour has it that they may try and do a Marc Savard deal for a D now that they have Drury... | evilwaldo

| #6 Posted on 2.10.02 0858.27 Reposted on: 2.10.09 0859.02 | Well Drury is now a flamer.
Actually it is a good deal for each side. The Avs get a good young defenseman and the Flames get some more offense. The Avs will have more patience with a young defenseman than the Flames which benefits them. | Freeway

Ummmmm....
OK. I have heard of 1 of these guys. (Boughner) That's not to say they aren't going to be good, obviously what do I know?? Looking at that list if I am an opponent certainly doesn't scare me though...
My question still stands. Don't they need someone else??? Will they try and deal Savard for a D?? You're in Calgary Freeway, any ideas??? | Freeway

| #10 Posted on 3.10.02 2017.16 Reposted on: 3.10.09 2017.21 | The idea right now is for Button to try and pick up an experienced yet cheap d-man in the waiver draft, because we need scoring. And heck, Savard, Drury, Gelinas, Conroy, Kobasew & Iginla make 2 sweet-ass lines. And that's 1 more than we had last year. | haz

Well, I was at last night's Flames-Oilers game, and the Iginla-Conroy-Drury line was the only line to do ANYTHING. Gelinas-Savard-Kobasew did absolutely nothing...
I know it's just one pre-season game, but improving that second line, or dropping one of the first line guys down, would help... | ALL ORIGINAL POSTS IN THIS THREAD ARE NOW AVAILABLE |
