My choice is Charlie Coyle.
Minny has 8 F, 6D, 1G signed for next year with 7.3 mill in Cap. They need to sign 4 Forwards and a backup, 5 players with less then 8 mills. Zucker and Dumba are both RFAs so they will cost 2-3 mill each. So they're in trouble.
Coyle is a 3.2 cap hit, 6'3, 220lbs Right hand shot, 23 years old. He hasn't lived up to expectations but still is a good player.
He has 32 points in 63 games this year with Minny having Parise, Koivu, Granlund, Vanek, Nino, Pominville, Zucker they might be willing to get rid of his cap hit for a pick.
I think an offer of Cal 2nd 2016 at the draft might get it done.
Also note Minny only has 4 picks (1st, 4th, 7th, 7th) at this draft so with Flames having multiple picks, this might be a perfect match.
