Due to another hectic day at work today, this preview will be briefer than normal….as well as being posted much later.

Meet the Sellers: It’s a firesale for the Calgary Flames

Unsurprisingly, the Calgary Flames are bad once again. Last season, they nearly squeaked into a playoff spot, finishing tied with the St. Louis Blues on points (96), but ultimately finishing outside a postseason berth due to the tiebreaker of regulation wins.

No-trade and no-movement clauses have become more and more common in the NHL. And herein lies the reason that players want them.
