The current group that the Flames have on the ice seems to be functioning quite well. Don't know if taking a guy like Hamonic out to replace him with Nylander would work as well as the numbers seem to suggest.

Ultimately I think the Leafs wait Nylander out till the last minute and he caves. In his case, it's going to be too hard for him to get back the lost money for sitting out an entire year. He could sign in the KHL for money on a short term deal but he's still taking long term injury risk in that case.
