The report said Hayes will most likely sign in CGY because, the Gaudreau effect.

But make no bones about it. Those of you who think the Hawks will get anything substantial in return for whatever cap dump they make, are severely over estimating things.

I just got jumped on saying the Flames should drop their asking price in said cap dump trade discussions because teams don't want to add firsts to a cap dump trade in another thread, then this comes up and all of a sudden the Flames can't offer enough? Backwards thinking by responding posters. And maybe because its a scenario that you cannot wrap your head around because the Flames come out on top. I don't know, figure it out.

Chicago needs to dump almost 3 million n cap. more if they need to sign some people. They put themselves in that situation and the Flames, offering up a moderate package for the rights to a player they know they can sign for nothing along with a cap hit player, is exactly the kind of scenario folks have been clamouring for since this whole cap dump shenanigans began.

Sorry. I'm referring to getting Leddy or Oduya
