Tough call.
Not naming Tkachuk or Gaudreau as captains could be what pushes them over the edge and gets them to walk.
Lucic and Monahan could both not be on the team as well next year. If the Flames make any substantial move next year, they may look at trading Lucic, as post bonus he will only be owed $1,000,000 in actual dollars, but has a 5.25 cap hit.
Monahan could end the year as a third line winger.
Don't hate Tanev as captain. He hasn't been with the team very long though.
