Seasons are precious things. And if you have the chance to swing a move that will put you over the top... you should do it.

These Flames are not predestined to lose in the first round no matter what roster they ice. If you can make a season-saving move that adds to the core in the future as well... you should do it! Sitting on your hands is such a Flames thing to do and it's a huge part of the reason why they haven't added an impact player mid-season in eight years!
Once again you are fooling yourself if you think a complementary winger is going to put this team over the top. How has Toffoli done putting the Kings over the top? Explain to me how Toffoli is going to make a poor defense play better? Also Toffoli can only play on one line so who's going to score when he's not on the ice a scoring is an issue throughout the forward lines. Acquiring players on trade deadline day and July 1st are the worst two days in hockey for most GM's.
