Hey there! I just read about the Flames' decision not to pursue Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg, and I have to say, I think they made the right call. The Flames are in a tricky spot with their roster, and adding those two players might not have been the best fit for their current lineup.
Holloway and Broberg are talented, no doubt, but the Flames already have a crowded forward and defense core. With players like Huberdeau and Coleman on the left side, Holloway would have struggled to find a consistent spot in the lineup. Plus, Broberg would have been fighting for ice time in a solid defensive group. It’s crucial for young players to get the minutes they need to develop, and it seems like the Blues are giving them that opportunity.
Financially, it makes sense too. The Flames have some key players to re-sign soon, and committing to Holloway and Broberg could have complicated their future plans. They need to focus on their rebuild and ensure they have the cap space to keep their promising prospects like Coronato and Zary.
Overall, I think the Flames are on the right track with their retooling strategy. It’s all about finding the right pieces that fit into the long-term vision, and sometimes that means passing on talented players who might not mesh well with the current roster. What do you think? Do you agree with their decision?
