Flames fielding calls on many players and some depth Milan will waive for a championship chase cap broker price is set so it will be difficult to unlikely. Teams calling on Flames backend but Flames want D in return or picks, Tanev and Hanafin are the two names most common but there is concern over Tanevs health? Looking at Seattle, Winnipeg.
Toffoli getting interest but Calgary is asking for 1st + hearing teams in both conferences interested in him I expect this to drop or be met around the 1st rounder.
Teams have called about Backlund his 10 team list was submitted at the start of the season and is favorable. Winnipeg, Colorado might be out and are leading the pack here. concern is next year for teams...
Brad is safe and is expected to do what is best for the organization regardless of his contract. The Flames ownership has approved salary retention for two years or less. Hasn't been a "preapproved option" before. Tre doesn't appear to be going anywhere after what I herd today.
The big fish is Lindholm but Calgary's asking price is... WOW Factor and honestly might not be met but 2.5 Million for a 1AB-Center is no joke around the league.

From this my guess would be Hanifin and/or Toffoli moved. Get that extra 2023 first!
Backlund to COL/WPG I could see too for something like a 2nd + prospect .. although it's hard to imagine him wearing any other jersey
I could also see Korposalo being brought in, because the goaltending has just been that atrocious, and even with a rebooted squad you need better than what they've gotten
