Dealing Frolik and demoting both Kylington and Gillies gives the Flames a little over $13.2 million for the three RFAs without having to sacrifice any of the future with a messy buyout. Keeps the team's defensive depth intact, as well. After signing those three players, the team would have:

13 forwards (Gaudreau, Monahan, Backlund, Tkachuk, Bennett, Lucic, Mangiapane, Jankowski, Ryan, Lindholm, Czarnik, Quine, Dube)
7 defensemen (Giordano, Brodie, Hanifin, Hamonic, Valimaki, Andersson, Stone)
2 goalies (Rittich, Talbot)

This, of course, assumes that Frolik can be dealt without taking any salary in return.
