Small update on the NYR stuff:

I've been told that NYR rumor is just that, a blogger/fan based one put out to drum up clicks. With that said, the Flames have 100% shown interest in Kakko as a reclamation project in Calgary and continue to inquire hoping the price comes down.

However, as of right now the lineup is pretty congested at the forward group:

Huberdeau - Backlund - Coleman
Zary - Sharangovich - Mantha
Pospisil - Kadri - Kuzmenko
Lomberg - _____ - _____

I feel like there's 2 slots available but potentially 4th line spots unless you move Pospisil/Mantha down?

Duehr/Rooney are the best fits for 4th line
Pelletier & Coronato for youth with guys like Sam Mortin, Klapka and Stromgren equally ready it seems.

Almost seemingly feels like the Flames need to move more UFA's ( Kuzmenko, Duehr, Rooney, Mantha) or we could see the youth saddled in the AHL again and wait for a trade.
