Once that's the plan you just add back as much value as they can. It's looking like the Flames added some decent value. Hopefully Suniev adds to the mix.

Those that wrote him off as a fourth liner early in the season ... sigh
The flames had the option of giving Toffoli the retirement contract he wanted, which was the worst of all options.

This is what great asset management looks like. Trading older vets for younger assets. No one is trading younger Toffoli for our 31 years old Toffoli either. You have to aim for a player like Sharangovich and hope your scouts have done their jobs.
