I don't really know what Calgary's plans are.
I think trading Andersson when his value is high (not sure when that exactly will be) rather than signing him to a long term expensive extension will tells us where Calagry is going. And especially with Kuzmenko this year.

I don’t think Calgary’s plans are that big of a mystery. Conroy’s been pretty transparent on wanting to get younger and, if you don’t want to be here, you will be moved. He’s also on record in saying he will not go past the TDL with pending UFA’s. Now, he did with Kylinton but I think that was a unique scenario that’s a one off.
I’d be surprised if Conroy goes beyond the trade deadline with Kuzmenko, Mantha, Barrie, or Vladar on the team without an extension.
I also think he wants to integrate youth with veterans who want to be here and are still impactful players. In other words guys like Kadri, Backlund, Huberdeau, Weegar, and unless he asks out, Anderson.
