I agree, Travis Hamonic looks to be done as a Flame.

TJ Brodie is good but doesn't appear to be in the Flames plans as he was almost traded to Toronto.

Oliver Kylington could be a game breaker but again, Calgary almost traded him to Vancouver.

And then Noah Hanifin who was supposedly almost dealt to this past season too.

Then we have both Sam Bennett and Mark Jankowski who were said to have wanted out, because of their ice-time and getting scratched this past season...

I suppose things can change but I'd be perfectly fine with moving forward with UFA's
Erik Gustafsson, Derek Forbort, Tobias Rieder instead of ^ those guys.

I fear an ill-timed Sam Bennett penalty could be the difference in this series and that the Flames are a better team the more minutes Derek Ryan plays.

I think the Calgary D next season looks something like this... with Hanifin being potential trade bait for a top 6 C or RW'er.

Giordano - Andersson
Hanifin - Gustafsson
Mackey - Välimäki
Forbort
