Poirier, Sieloff, Klimchuk, Kulak will be in the final years of their ELC deals, and Bennett will still have another year left on top of that.
In all likelihood, the decision about what to do with Engelland will be a minor one.

Flames line up I would hope will look dramatically different when Engelland's contract is in its last season.
Remember, last season with the Penguins he was a 6th/7th type of dman.
This player in my view, in year 3 of his contract will not be able to make the roster. Flames will need to Waive him and place him within their AHL team.
