Just finished listening....question for you guys.

If the Flames move Iginla, Cammy, Bouw, each for firsts then you go into the draft with 4 first rounders and you go into next year with a LOT of cap space.

Our own pick will be a Top 7. There is a chance that player is going to play next fall.

Now with the cap space if the Flames take on a big contract without giving up a lot of assets like Brad Richards or someone like that our line up wont be that bad.

Richards, Hudler. Glencross, Backlund, Baertschi, Top 7 Pick, Stajan, Stempniak, Horak.

We would also have in addition 3 first round prospects to add to Jankowski, Wotherspoon, and Gudreau.

I would imagine Ramo starts next year.

I talked about a Ottawa style rebuilt, but there is the Philadelphia model too. We can trade our assets for picks/prospect and then use our money to go into the FA market and plug holes and/or take on some contracts teams might want to dump.

Just a thought.
