That's pretty much it.
You called it a tear down.

Flames core as I see it for the next 2 season unless there are some extraneous developments (trades, buy outs)
These are players that are signed through 2013-14 or RFA's that would be big news if not qualified
Tkachuk - 23
Lindholm - 27
Markstrom - 31
Tanev - 31
Monahan - 26
Hanifin - 24
Andersson - 24
Valimaki - 22
Mangiapane - 24
Dube - 22
Backlund - 31
Lucic - 32
12 players average age 26.4
4 players over 30 3 player under 23
I would venture to say that the Flames have more players locked in for 2 more seasons than average and the group would be in the middle of pack age wise.
More than half the Flames roster is locked in for the next 2 full seasons.
