Would that package of players be able to return something around Lafreniere or Byfield and give the Flames cap flexibility and youth that could be factors down the road? Allow the team to rebuild and stay competitive?
Again a topic for the summer but one I have thought might make more sense if they trade instead of extend those players even though they are 2 crucial core players.

Maybe if there is a different GM. We have eight plus years of tape on Treliving and we can see he just doesn’t like moving on from players until his hand is forced.
