Saw Seravalli on barn burner today mentioning the flames will be active in free agency but likely not big game hunting. I’ll be fine with that as long as any signings they make are tradable contracts. Avoid the temptation to sign Chandler Stephenson to a long contract for too much money (that he will never live up to) because he “knows how to win” - that was the Treliving style of free agency. Look for the smart signings… like what Montreal did with Monahan. Low risk and high reward in trade. If Montreal ended up being competitive this year, Monahan would have been a great signing. They weren’t and he was still a great signing because of the return he brought back.
