Flames see high on Bennett and replace him with the younger Frost. They also replace his grit with the addition of the better Konecny. Ghost is in for salary reasons and Kylington doesn’t really fit with all the LHD on the team. The team still likely needs to make a few moves to fit Hall, Markstrom and another top 4 D on the roster but moving Ryan and possibly Rittich could help them fill out the roster.
Flames trade a 27, 24, and 23 year old for a 27, 23, and 21 year old so they get a little younger up front and gain an expansion slot with Frost being exempt.

I think your proposals, in general, have been quite good.
For this one, I think it depends how much value (or negative value) Gostisbhere has. I actually think the second might have to switch to being from the Flames, since Konecny's contract and position give him a lot of value. Bennett, despite having more value than usual, doesn't get Frost.
