Agreed. The Flames are comfortably a top-ten scoring team, and that is with a fairly average powerplay.

Goaltending is obviously the one huge question mark and should something acceptable be presented to BT between now and the deadline, he will be all over it.

This is the key, here. I think with how Treliving has operated to date the plan is to wait this out and see what emerges from the market. A goalie trade will only occur if the deal provides a clear upgrade to what the Flames already have, otherwise, this is something that will be addressed in the summer—very likely through free agency.
