Marek: “Are you able to confirm anything about Calgary and what’s happening there? I mean, the 2 biggest names, you realize, Kadri and Coleman. Wonder about even someone like MacKenzie Weegar at the identical time. Anything, anything cooking with Cal. Well, let’s get back to, let’s get back to, to ice within the glass, not not ice, not ice on the bottom here, in a few seconds, sand in your toes.
What’s happening with Calgary?”

Pagnotta: “Well, the mango and white rum, same color, by the best way, Orange. It’s great.
The Flames, I believe they’re going to be some, I believe there’s more movement, movement coming. Before, leading into before his injury, there was a whole lot of smoke around Blake Coleman. Lots. To the purpose where I can be surprised if he’s not moved by the deadline.
We all know Kadri is open to a move. He’s made that clear to the Flames. Now, they don’t must necessarily do anything now, but just the indisputable fact that he’s relayed that message, or his camps relayed that message, speaks volumes.
We’ve talked about this before. It’s a decent group. The veteran guys are a decent group, and once you begin to see guys leave, (Rasmus) Andersson’s out, Coleman’s likely, next. Kadri could possibly be out as well. You recognize, in case you’re Mackenzie Weegar, you’re sitting there going …”
Marek: “What am I here for? Where did everyone go?”
Pagnotta: “Exactly. I got five more years of what? And that’s why these other teams are going to start out poking around on him.
Ryan Lomberg is one other guy, pending UFA, that a whole lot of teams are going to take a look at.
Really, the one name straight away where I haven’t heard an excessive amount of around is (Yegor) Sharangovich. And little bit of an off season for him. But just by way of teams type of poking around. Haven’t heard an excessive amount of on him. I’m not expecting anything.
But the opposite guys I’m. And with (Jonathan) Huberdeau done for the season. And the expectation and likelihood that a minimum of another big name is out of Calgary by the March sixth deadline, you realize they’re going to, they’re going to be another changes that can follow suit in the summertime. I’ve got to imagine, and a few teams imagine that as well.

Where, whatever happens on the deadline, unless Craig Conway completely cleans house straight away, whatever doesn’t occur on the deadline, I should say, is more likely to occur around draft time and July 1.”
