In reality whether or not he had a good year last year, I hope all understand that Gio’s contract is fair, despite his down year. As Seattle, If I could select a former Norris winner with 1 yr term, I’d do it.
I have concerns about backlund’s deal, and I wouldn’t protect it, but I doubt Seattle bites. If Seattle takes Bennett or Kylington, I’m good with that.

As I mentioned in the OP there is no way Lucic is taken unless the Flames out some premium futures on the table. Look at what Vegas was able to do to teams making them pay 1st round picks or top prospects like Tuch or Theodore.
I think considering the Flames will certainly be exposing a very good player they would have to pay a very steep price. There is the price to take Lucic and the price to not take Giordano or Backlund.
