I think the Flames essentially used the cap space to get a decent player and an asset worth a 2nd-3rd round pick at the deadline/next off-season. The key here is term. Any type of elite talent will require term, and over-payment. Right now it's all about keeping the status quo for another year, and see what this team can do without Gaudreau.
