Absolutely agree with the bolded... we have to go for it this year, we are on fire and have the puck luck going our way!

Yeah but that doesn't include Matthew Tkachuk's performance bonuses.
Tkachuk is going to reach all his performance bonuses of $850k.
If the Flames don't have at least $850k cap space at the end of the season, the outstanding balance will roll over to next season, which is probably worse considering some of the RFAs they need to re-sign.
If the Flames don't want Tkachuk's bonus to roll over they can actually add only $1.5 mil in cap space at the deadline by my quick calculation
