The Flames could very well be in a spot where they have a single 1st between 22-24 because they added Toffoli and paid another team to dump Monahan so they could sign Kadri.
Barkov is entering year 4 of his deal when he turns 30 not year 1 like Hubdereau. Both he and Tkachuk expire before they are 35. What do you mean half is win now and half is win later? They clearly got the best player in the deal now and later as Tkachuk is vastly superior to Huberdeau. Weegar is a tough loss but he is a number 4 Dman he has not shown to be a top pairing guy in his time here. You seem to have trouble with the rental moves they made and keep leaning on that where they gave up unprotected 1sts but trading that third protected 1st for 8 years of a franchise winger is the straw that breaks the camel’s back?

If the Flames lose their own pick to Montreal they keep the Florida pick. They are not going 3 years without a first like the Panthers.
The coach is irrelevant and a pretty poor excuse, they aren't gonna fire him anyway
