I would expect that the Flames drop down in the standings next year, then jump up the year after that and hopefully compete for a playoff spot in year four.

If we need to bring in vets then why trade the vets we have now. I think other than trading Cammellari to a desperate playoff team there isn't much to trade. I'd rather keep Hudler, Stempniak, Galliardi and Stajan (which we already have kept) then to bring in some vets. We have a 4th line already in McGrattan, Westgarth and Bouma.
