And you think the Flames should ADD?

Not saying I would personally do it. But I know BT still thinks highly of OEL and with the Coyotes up against the cap, it definitely makes for an intriguing discussion. I’ve seen the rumors of Darnell Nurse + 1st, so my mind went directly to what a comparable Flames trade would be. If the Coyotes ate some salary, it might work. Not sure exactly how OEL would do with the Flames, but I know he can eat a ton of minutes and that shot of his is elite.
