Yeah, the risk of injury is a thing. But if the Flames are being low-balled, then waiting for the deadline is a good strategy because teams are notoriously loose with futures at the deadline. The Flames could get huge deals for the future of the team at the deadline. The keys to the strategy would be avoiding injuries on two players, who are not injury-prone, at all, and being willing and able to move the players regardless how the season plays out.
