I agree it wouldn't be straight up. Might be too expensive for the risk but he's the type of player I would target for now. Unless the Flames want to commit to a full rebuild which I doubt they do then they need to look at replacing higher price players for lower price players with upside
Bennett
Backlund
Gio
Ryan
For me these guys go for guys that make about half what they do allows us to resign players and maybe add the core moving forward. Imo Backlund and Gio are harder to replace. Going to need to find someone with good upside or have it come from within
