Flames cannot even try to sign Rasmus under July 1, 2025 (two years from now). He is another example of how locking down your RFA's for as long as possible works almost all the time.
You also certainly can run with a top 3 that makes around 20 million. Vegas has a top 3 that makes 20 million. Dallas has a top 3 that makes about 20 million. There are a number of good teams that have 20 million in their top 3 dmen.
Hanifin - Anderson
Kylington - Weeger
That should be a decent top 4 if the Flames decide to go with it. I would much rather trade Lindholm, Toffoli, Backlund (basically any of the tradeable forwards) and sign Hanifin if I had the choice.
