But that leads to the next thing I don't get about it....if they did acquire Chiarot who in the hell comes out of the line up so he can play? The D is rolling right now, not really as weak link out there. And the rumored price would be way too much for what would essentially be a 6/7 d-man

Agreed. It’s the cost that makes it a concern most of all. Chiarot would be a great add but at the price Montreal wants, I don’t think it’s worth it.

Come trade deadline, if the flames have kept rolling like this, I could see Treliving getting another bruising defenseman. If the flames have their playoff position really well settled, they could start cycling the heavy guys (Zadorov, Gudbranson, Stone, and *blank) in and out of the line up in a rotation. Win or lose, guys would take their turns resting for a game. Would throw in some of the other defencemen (Hanifin, Kylington, Andersson and Tanev) into the mix of rest if they ever need it.

Makes it so the guys are sitting not because they have played a poor game but because Sutter wants everyone at the right level of sharp (by playing games) and rested (by sitting for some games).
