Calgary Flames Daily: GM Brad Treliving Talks About Trade Deadline
Good morning Calgary Flames fans! It’s starting to get warmer (again). You know the drill, let’s look at some news surrounding the Flames.
It’s day three of bye-week for the Calgary Flames right now. From Instagram stories, we know Matthew Tkachuk and Johnny Gaudreau are in Mexico. Spoiler alert: they’ve been drinking a lot.
The bye-week was brought this season because of the World Cup of Hockey and it’s a mandatory five-day break that each team must take. In those five days, the coaching staff cannot hold practice or morning skates. It’s to give the players a break with this rigorous schedule.
Most of the players are relaxing, going somewhere warm, or spending time with their families. But someone who isn’t relaxing a whole lot is GM Brad Treliving. With trade deadline coming up, you know he’s going to be a busy man. Especially with the Flames that keep teeter-totting in and out of a playoff spot.
Do they need to make a change in their lineup right now? Or are things going alright?
