If Andersson does move they'll have to go out and get somebody. But I'm okay with the depth given they sign Kylington to an extension.
There's still like 6 d men who've played NHL games and have just made the show in the past 2 seasons.
Weegar, Kylington, Miromanov, Gilbert, Pachal, Solovyov.
It doesn't wow you but at least there's upside.
Then you factor in Brzutewicz, Grushnikov, Kuznetsov, Poirier (biggest stretch). There's depth there. Flames don't need to do much except add on the fly as they figure who can make it and who cannot.
Moving Andersson definitely put a chink in the armor but that can be addressed if needed. Trades, signings . Just depends.
I'm guessing nothing will come of it this offseason.
