I think people underestimate how long the rebuild might be. Kadri is 34 and Huby is 32 and Backlund is 36 and Weager is 31. Even with those post-apex players - at least one of which is grossly overpaid - the flames are 28th in payroll. And they are looking to trade Rasmus.
All the data suggests the trajectory of the team is downwards, on purpose. It's a long rebuild. You need to replace all five guys with higher end drafted talent over the next four years.
