Just a wild guess as to some who might marginally fit the criteria. Some of them likely don't get bought out and traded for some return.

I do think when looking at a guy like Myers it would be a package, and I just brought him up as an example.
But doing the Math right now Buffalo will likely be about $1M over the cap.
And he has not been in the good books with Management.
They may find it attractive to take something like Tanguay, Butler, and a pick.
Butler is a Buffalo guy, they may still have expectation of him.
I think from the Flames Stand point the pick would have to be in that 25 - 45 range at best, and we don't even know if they have a pick in that range yet. So there are allot of moving parts.
But it was just a suggestion of the type of deal that the Flames could/should be looking at.
You also have to remember that Myers has 6 years left on a contract that looks pretty bad right now, so that could lower his value.
