But I'll agree the prime time to move some of the old guard for the best return has passed. It doesn't mean the Flames should just give up on any return and ride out those contracts tho.
ie: if trading someone a couple years ago would have been a 1st and a blue-chip prospect, and now it's a 2nd and a decent prospect, you still do it... instead of just riding it out in mediocrity. Same goes for guys who would have got less a couple years ago, and get slightly less now. Still worth it if the trade makes the team better in a couple years.

Would you have made the Brett Hull trade?
