The Flyers did prioritize getting cap relief as part of their deal. I just heard Friedman say that a lot of teams fans are upset how cheap the Kraken just acquired Marchment. The cap dump was a rental they flipped so it was 2nd, 3rd, tweener who was a former first rounder and ppg AHL player.
I don’t think the Flames would just be able to dump the money and get some value back but he could definitely have some value where salary is being exchanged both ways.
