I think we use some of those second rounders to try to get a younger RW, much like we did with Hamilton last year.
Cap teams are going to need to shed some money, especially if a player needs a raise soon.
Could see guys like Hayes, Niederreiter, Nichuskin, Tom Wilson, Marcus Johansson, Hertl etc being of interest to the Flames if they bundle up some of those 2nd rounders with a prospect.
Could also see us looking at Simmonds or Read in a trade from Philadelphia. Need to make room for Raises to Coutourier and Voracek, plus have to sign Schenn still as well.
