It would only be for 18 games, and there are other options as well between Kulak/Wotherspoon if you're not wanting to push the two young D-men in other than for a cup of coffee (like Kylington was last year in game 82).
Similarly, you could throw Poirier out there instead of Janko/Shinkaruk if necessary as well.
The Flames have depth that they wouldn't be impacted much if they sell off a bunch of pieces as they are running for a playoff spot.
Also with Elliott, maybe him for Kyrou (the player the Blues selected with our 2nd last year)
