The Flames are 17th in 5v5 goal scoring rates and 22nd in PP goal scoring rates. They've had more PPs than the average team and they've been quite fortunate in empty net situations both ways, but I am pretty sure a guy like Nylander still fills a real team need as Lindholm is still our only point-producing RHS.
Nylander's expected contract does make him unviable though.
