Yes, I doubt Michael Stone would go to Ottawa if the Flames wanted to sign Mark Stone. Neal has negative value, Ryan is probably pretty close to even.
And if Backlund has a no movement clause, that basically just leaves Frolik and Brodie.
Frolik definitely makes the most sense. But I'm pretty sure the Flames would have to send more money to the Sens in order to re-sign Stone and Tkachuk.
