The Flames at one point certainly planned on having Gaudreau and Tkachuk on this team long term and we’re prepared to pay both $10.5M and likely knew and wanted to keep Lindholm on top of that. If somehow the end result is Huberdeau-Lindholm-Nylander then you think the team would find a way to afford that as the cap hits will come in around the same as what they would have budgeted with Gaudreau-Lindholm-Tkachuk.
I think Lindholm’s deal if he stays is between 9-9.5 and I think Nylander would be between 9.25-9.75
