Like many around here, I keep coming back to Gustav Nyquist, Eric Staal and Marcus Johansson as the players that check the boxes of UFA, hungry for a Cup, and capable of playing second line minutes. They can all likely be had for Mangiapane (RFA), Czarnik (one year left) and a mid pick. Even Nyquist is playing for a cap team that likely doesn't bring him back next season regardless, and would trade for cost control.
I think it unlikely Calgary goes big game hunting.
