I think the Flames could be the third team to take on Ryan; however, both Ottawa and Tampa would have to retain parts of the cap hit; say Ottawa retains 25% and Tampa retains 15%. If the cap hit can come down to $4 to $4.5 million, I think it works for the Flames as you would be getting a top 6 winger for 4 more years.

Ryan could play up and down both wings with with Monahan-Gaudreau or with Backlund or the Jankowski line.

Question is, what type of prospect or player would the Flames give up to get that. Is the rights to Adam Fox too rich for a top 6 winger for the next 4 years at a cap hit of $4.5 million? Or is it a Dube or Mangiapane type prospect that gets traded?
