If the Flames want to stay competitive when Johnny is in his 30-35 years they should hold onto the Coronato’s, Pelletier’s and picks especially on rentals.

I still think Dube+Valimaki+2nd rounder are the assets the flames have in play. Pelletier could take the role Dube currently has next season and if he gets the team a legit top 6 forward it could be worth exploring.
Agreed. I’d also consider a first if the player is good enough. Most seem to agree this team is good enough if we add 1 very good player look out. We don’t need 6 players imo

Valimaki dube first maybe first and 1 2nd. Trading our first this year is looking likely it’s not a top 15 pick and it seems this team has many prospects that fall in the category of players taking in the middle or late first or 2nd round.

Not sure who will be available but there is 8 teams in the east and none are even close to Boston who is in 8th.

With 32 teams this year is first year 16 will miss the playoffs. Some trade deadlines there is 6 or 7 sellers. There could be 10 to 12 this year. Could be a great year to buy
