If anything, they should be sniffing around teams who dip into the free agent market and possibly bump a kid on the verge of making it in favor of experience.
There should be some Colborne opportunities this year, and the Flames should take advantage of those. Guys like Brett Connolly, Dylan McIlrath, Brandon Gormley, Beau Bennett, and Emerson Etem could all be hard pressed to make their teams and could end up having to go through waivers to get to the minors. Might be worth while sniping those players than paying big for free agents at this point.

Personally I would have no issues if the Flames sign a couple of players via Free Agency....
Key is to keep the term short.
Flames need to add salary to reach the floor, whether its done via trade or Free Agency.... is the open questions
