Time will tell if what I posted will come to be or not. JMO, No Flames fan should waste any time dreaming ohhh we can go after this guy or that guy.
It is not going to happen. Not this offseason or the next, I do not see the Flames going to make a serious splash in the UFA market for quite a number of seasons.
Not to mention the teams that are the perennial favorites are locking up their core guys for long term. Just like thankfully the Flames did recently with Brodie.
We are fortunate that the Flames appear to have a nucleus of rookies on the team and in the AHL that are hopefully going to take the team forward.
