I would much rather sign someone in free agency to a 2 year deal or something to fill the gap while we wait for some players to mature.

The loss of Kylington really stings.
Best case scenario may be a returning vet defenseman that the acquiring teams sees as a Hanifin upgrade, but signed to less term.

Would give the Flames someone for this year and next so they don't blow their brains out in free agency, and get more value in the trade for taking the cap hit on.
