You have to overpay to move up. The other team has the enticing asset - you have to convince them to give it up.

That means overpayment. Overpayment means giving up more than you're getting. The Flames are in asset-accumulation mode - they need as many good young assets as they can get their hands on.

Trading up makes no sense at this point - unless they can do it by moving an older player, but I very much doubt that.

And trying to rush or force things is the surest way to screw up
