Out of curiosity what is the penalty for not meeting the cap floor? If it's just a fine or a payout to the PA for the dollar amount you're under by, I could maybe see Flames brass rolling up to the draft, making their picks, and packing it in for the summer without reaching the floor.
Perhaps not likely, but a possibility. I'm not seeing a whole lot this summer the Flames can or would want to do in terms of bringing in new players. The veteran presence on the team is already fairly well established.
