The Flames will have to retain salary or pick up junk to get rid of Markstrom

You have this notion that they have better goalies than Markstrom. They don’t. They’d love to have him, or they should. Markstrom’s issue is his $6M hit, which they can’t afford. They have no contracts to move that aren’t their top wingers. So if they want Zadorov and Markstrom they have to move salary, and they were at odds with Bratt as recently as his last negotiations (which I suspect Bratt now thinks didn’t go his way).
