Definitely teams are still going to sign long-term contracts; I disagree, I think we are still going to see a trend towards signing certain players to short-term contracts. I think if you're going to take the risk then you've got to be sure you've got the right player.

Look who Conroy just signed in free agency. It’s filler and reclamation players. I don’t disagree that the Flames should stay away from the UFA market but GMs aren’t suddenly going to become ultra disciplined in free agency. Zadorov, Tanev, Guentzel, Lindholm, Skeji etc are all long term deals that are going to age poorly.
