That seems like a deep group 1-6. Would probably only cost 6.5-7 for both Stone and Russell.

The Flames have about 24 million in cap space. That would leave 17 million for

Resigning Bennett + Ferland + Chiasson (probably in the 5.5 million range for the group)

Signing 1 more forward

Signing a starter and backup (assuming Gillies and his .925 will be the backup because he's cheap)

The Flames would save just under 3 million if they bought out Stajan and Bouma. Replacing them with say Janko and Lazar would mean they'd have an extra 1.5 to work with.
Russell is probably looking for a retirement contract.

If it's 2 years though I'm down
