I'd trade both the Nordstrom and Rinaldo signings for any one of the above.
Rinaldo we had to keep to 3-5 minutes of ice time in the play ins cause he's a liability and this guy is a downgrade on even Jankowski offensively.

Nordstrom had as many points as Janko last season, in 8 fewer games.
The numbers don't work well with a $1.4M signing. Right now on CF Rinaldo/Gawdin/Robinson/Froese are all not on the NHL roster and only 11 forwards. The Flames have $3.3M in space. Switch Nordstrom for a $1.4M signing and you have $2.6M. You still need two more forwards and you need to sign Kylington. Two more fwds are $1.4, leaving $1.2 for Kylington and then no wriggle room at all.
Also, some of those guys are ill suited for the PK need without Jankowski and Reider. Sheary is good, Haula can do it, Grabner has done it (but is 33).
