Much like the Rantanen trade some things have deadlines.
I can't confirm specifics or timelines for each teams involved as each trade is its own case. I've got intel, Craig would want to do it earlier then later if its a player with term and of organizational need as the player is probably younger and will need time to adjust.
Nothing is in the red zone but we are seeing the ball move on a lot of these available player now that Rantanen has moved.
Teams are calling on Andersson - But given the Flames current situation outside of a grandslam offer they will wait till the summer. The question will always remain the number. Flames are willing to go long term at lower AAV. Higher AAV flames don't want to buy all 8 years.
Flames are willing to operate at Max CAP when the new arena opens up, until then there is a bit of a lower internal cap. Doesn't mean Conroy CAN'T go big game hunt. Just age is a factor.
