Next summer Flames will qualify Tkachuk with a multi year deal. Tkachuk will take the team to arbitration. Flames will agree to the two year deal at $9.5M. Tkachuk will leave as a UFA in 2024.

Monahan won't be traded. Monahan won't be resigned. Monahan will leave the team as a UFA in 2023.

Flames will make no more notable trades or UFA signings except to sign Michael Stone to a two year deal the beginning of September.

For the next two years the Flames will finish as the second wild card team in the west, just making the playoffs by one point on shootout wins in the final games of the season. They will go into the playoffs chanting and shouting the mantra "All you have to do is get in to win!". They will get swept both years and the four losses will be by more than three goals every game.

2023 Treliving and Sutter will not have their contracts renewed. The organization will start another misguided attempt to rebuild on the fly with a new GM and head coach.

Such has been prophesied.

Go away.
