Every team with the cap space will make Rantanen an offer. There is no evidence whatsoever that the Flames are any more interested in him than any other team, they just have more cap space than most other teams. If Rantanen offered to sign with the Flames for $10M, would you consider that a bad signing? Put him on the Flames' top line line, slot almost every other forward in a better spot than they are now, and tell me that that doesn't instantly make them a contender.

Huberdeau-Kadri-Rantanen
Farabee-Zary-Coronato
Honzek-Frost-Sharangovich
Pospisil-Backlund-Coleman
Lmao that isn’t a contender. Go look at the defence.

Also Lindholm was offered 8.6M per year. That makes him one of the worst contracts in the league. Not a single team would trade anything for him guy is a passenger who fed of Gaudreau.

You don’t win in free agency win with home grown talent. Find me a team who built a winner from free agency.
