Sign Ilya Kovalchuk to a 3Y/7M contract, since he's likely to only get 2Y offers from most teams.
Tkachuk - ROR - Marner
Gaudreau - Monahan - Kovalchuk
Bennett -Jankowski - Frolik
Ferland - Shore - Klimchuk
Brouwer
Giordano - Hamonic
Kulak - Stone
Green - Andersson
How fun would that be to watch?

That blueline is brutal. The Flames can afford to move one top 4 but not 2 in my opinion.
If we are doing the dream scenarios why not sign Tavares over Kovalchuk?
I don’t see how the Flames trade Backlund before his contract kicks in that is a bad look on the Flames.
Keep that Toronto trade even if it is one for one
