The thing that really sewers depth is paying replacement players like Stajan, Engelland, Jones, Smid and Raymond a combined $17m dollars. Compared to that, a $1m overpay to Gaudreau is nothing, especially if it buys 8 years. Going forward, the Flames have to avoid spending millions of dollars on bottom half of the lineup players and they will be fine.
