Cammalleri probably won't be back but the Flames will sign other UFAs.

Sven main problem is his strength imo. That takes time to develop. For me, he seems similar to Kadri in development. Kadri was up and down between the NHL and AHL for his first 3 years as well.
Granlund is a nice looking player but I still don't see him as the same skill level as Sven's. One never knows but I try to look at absolute upside.

Granlund = 2nd liner with 50-70 point potental

Baertschi = 1st liner with 70-90 point potental
