Flames are in a good spot with that, if the next few years are all about playing the kids, managing to stay under the cap shouldn't be a huge issue. Bouwmeester's deal ends next year

Except the Flames are a penny-pinching organization. Who else would trade away 2nd round draft choice so someone could take Kotalik off their hands instead of eating 3 million a burying him in the minors.
No way the Flames eat a penny of any contract.
