OTT is about the only team(hypothetically speaking) that could take back Neal retained obviously if we pay enough. So heres the question. Would you give up two first rounders, mangiapane and Neal retained to 4.5 for Stone signed long term?
Could set us up for a very long time to be contenders for atleast the next 5 years.
I dont even blink and pull the trigger.

I’d consider it. 2 late 1sts aren’t anything special to me. They’re practically early 2nds. But the Flames will be super tight against the cap and depending on what Tkachuk, Rittich and Bennett will want, Tre might actually have to offload salary just to afford these guys.
Just to afford a Stone or a Duchene, Treliving would probably have to remove every bad contract on this team which would be a monumental task in itself.
