I know a few posters are throwing 2.5mil as a possible cap hit for Ryan but I don't see it, if we're going by the general thought of 1mil/10 points. Anything less than 3.5mil I'd be happy with. 3 years is meh, 2 would be good.
I get what the Flames are trying to do, create four lines that can score like Vegas, rather than bring in just one big name forward and rely solely on that.

I do recall Peters talking about how the roles on top to bottom lines were changing. If you can get 4 scoring lines and lots of speed you are going to wear other teams down. Do the Flames have the horses to do it. I think we will see a mix of skill and speed balanced through all 4 lines.
