They mentioned there were other offers the Flames received but most of them were 1 for 1 trades Dougie for a top 6 forward and the Flames didnt want to cripple their backend taking just 1 player.
Could be right, could be wrong - I think we'll still see a significant piece join the fold on the right side.

Thats what i thought. Tre didnt want to get a top 6 player while making the d much worse. I wonder who was offered in a 1 for 1 trade. Maybe ROR or stone?
