For the Flames it would be Johnny, Tkachuk, Lindholm, unfortunately Monahan and of course Markstrom. Nobody on defense now.
So to fulfil your criteria, the Flames would have to bring in a 40 goal scorer or a #1D to make any meaningful upgrade. Good luck finding one of those on offer (unless you want to pay four 1st round picks for someone who might never play another NHL game and is certainly not guaranteed to reach that plateau).
