My bet is he'd sell every last one of them despite being in a playoff spot. The fact that they are all under contract past this season means he doesn't have to sell them right now and submarine the team that's battled hard to stay in the playoff hunt.
If the Flames were 5+ points out though, I also bet he'd be attempting to maximize these assets right now.
All we can do is take solace in the fact that the biggest reason we are in a playoff spot right now is because they appear to have a legit starting goalie who should be around for another 8+ years through his prime.

It's a tough pill to swallow when teams seem to be paying higher prices than expected. Trades so far seem to be great for selling teams.
