Three seasons out, when futures might help us, Huberdeau and Kadri will be on a hard decline of post apex.
The realistic options are tear it down or stay the course for another season. There's really no in between

With Kadri and Huderdeau weighing down the Flames cap, they will need young cost controlled players. It takes time for these to make it to a roster. This is not a good team, it will not be a competitive team next year, it's time to prepare for the next phase.
