I don't think Stamkos is going to be garbage or even declining right now but I just don't see him as a fit for the Flames moving forward. Sure, I think it would be great to have him on the team but I'd prefer something elese, a different style of player. Not to say that we don't need someone like Stamkos but we don't need someone like Stamkos at over 8 mil per. If we could get him at a contract under 7 then yes but that's a pipe dream. I don't think this team is ready to add any big contracts this coming summer but the following year they will.
