I think its fair to say it's still a little ambigous what the Flames are doing.
Yes they sold key players. But they were UFAs and they tried to re-sign them to very fair contracts first.
They traded them for packages that included more retool then rebuild components e.g. underutilized mid 20 years old.
Looking at what they've done and what theyve said, it does feel more like a retool. They're not planning on scraping bottom. They're trying to find 20-25 year olds to play in the top half of the roster.
We should have a clearer picture after draft day and free agency I hope.

Retooling with a Kuzmenko and Miramanov? Who seem to be filler players to get us through these times.
Who would we be retooling around ? I’m curious no one has said so far.
Backlund? Huberdeau ? Kadri? Coleman?
