The return without retaining some salary was probably limited. Seems like we got a bottom-six C good for 10-15 goals, maybe with a bit of upside? And a late 3rd. Seems very much in the "something for now, something for later" kind of rebuild deals the Flames have pursued in the past.
Nothing but good things to say about Toffoli's performance in his time here. He looked out of gas in the playoffs in year one, but he was probably our most consistent and dangerous threat night-in and night-out last season. A shame it didn't come together while he was here.
