Win or lose, I'd be ecstatic with that lineup.

Like someone else said, the Flames would not reach league minimum.
Giordano brings leadership and most likely will be the captain. He needs to stay. He can replace Sieloff in your line-up because it's very doubtful he will be ready for the NHL. He has only 45 game in junior under his belt.
Cammalleri needs to stay because his value in trade right now is too low. At the trade deadline it will give the Flames another 1st rounder, probably more.
I agree about getting rid of Butler, Stajan, Jackman and B. Jones as soon as possible.
