Is there someone they're unhappy with, do they want to scratch Gudbranson or Zadorov? That seems unlikely, both have been very serviceable. Or they want a guy who isn't that good so it's ok to sit him, but they already have Stone. Maybe there's undisclosed injuries but everyone in the D core is playing the best hockey of their careers.
So this is a long winded way of saying I still don't understand why the Flames want more D depth.

I think the idea is to have 9 defensemen to carry you through to the finals, in case there's injuries.
I guess Mackey/Valimaki are your "Double Doors" but it wouldn't hurt to have one more.
