I’d put RFA offer sheet at about <35%
Big name UFA at <10% chance
100% chance Calgary wants additional 1st round picks in next 3 draft
50% chance they trade up/down at this point - volatile after 3rd pick
98% chance we see Huska extended before season starts
90% chance we see Parekh up with the big club for the whole season
90% chance Klapka with the big club full time
Small sample size of course but this is what I’ve heard.

The last 8 or 9 pages were triggered by this post. Which, as PepsiFree pointed out, ironically doesn't mention Kadri at all.
Andersson is being traded because he's getting pushed out by our younger RD, specifically Parekh. Why sign a 30 year player to an 8 year deal when you have the replacement(s) coming up hard through the system? The Flames seem to have answered that question.
Vladar is gone, because he wants more time, but the team is clearly committed to the younger better player.
Hanley and Rooney likely won't be re-signed, because they feel they can be replaced with younger players in the system.
They are doing what a lot of people want them to do. Just not as dramatically as some of the people on here are looking for.
