Yeah, they were probably up front with him that they need to to try and balance out the roster, but may circle back to him if something else doesn't work out.

I am guessing Hall is the domino. If the Flames acquire his rights and sign him before free agency, then they will probably let Brodie go and trade Gaudreau for a more cost-controlled defenseman. Because Brodie is going to be getting a huge contract.
