That's the T9 wingers we have right now and under contract for next year with Coronato and Pelletier waiting in the wings (and I believe that Pelletier is no longer waivers exempt). I don't think it makes much sense for either of them to play limited 4th line minutes so for Coronato to get in the Flames need to make 2+X spaces (where X is the number of T9 forwards added in the offseason). Doable for sure but I'm not sure how probable.
