If anything the Flames needed more players to bring Eichel in because its likely 2+ are going out if it happens...you need to ice a team

I agree that it doesn’t impact the cap or the possibility of something happening. However, it does seem that they were keeping these deals quiet for a while. So, I think the likelihood of something happening seems less to me. We can only think keeping these deals quiet was part of a negotiation that has not resulted in anything. Time has run out it seems as they needed to start planning their roster and training camp. I would be surprised if much else happened now.
