If I am a rival GM I am trembling after the RoR fiasco. Feaster is aggressive, he has picks and cap space - he can go for RFA's or simply do "mercy-trades" with all that cap space.
Also, we just traded the all time leader in games played without ever playing in the post season for a 1st round pick and two meager prospect. 1 year ago we'd be happy getting Wade Redden back...

If I am a rival GM I am praying the Flames are dumb enough to overpay for my RFA.
Take a look at the RFA's that make it to FA. A top 5 pick will be a godsend to many teams add in the fact the Flames can't make much of a real offer since they don't have their 2nd and teams are hoping the Flames are dumb enough to make a RFA offer on their players.
