I think the plan is the same. Target players in that 22-25 year old range.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Andersson, Coleman, and maybe Kadri traded in the off season when there are more teams in the market for them. Right now, it's mostly just contenders looking for rentals and star players. In the off season there will be many more teams retooling for the next season.

The only deal that should have been on the table for the Flames was the Cozens deal, but Buffalo allegedly wanted Zary+ back. I'd be pretty apprehensive about pulling the trigger on that as well.
