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
Because I don't think that Taveras is very plausible. Possible, sure.
Kovalchuk is the best solution to our RW dilemma and costs nothing but money.

I wouldn't worry about trading Backlund and how it would look. A new coach, after a bad season, and it's the only chance to trade him for the length of the contract. Other players would understand the business of it.

And I like ROR better for this team.

Everyone except for Gio underwhelmed me on defense last year. I'm not feeling that protective.
