Who are you afraid of the Flames trading that would havehad any impact on the team in 3 years
Kadri ? Coleman ? Backlund ? UFA Anderson who looks like he isn’t signing
Would not having Shags and Frost in 3 years be the difference between Wolf staying and leaving (both would be gone /not acquired in my ideal world)
Our best players are going to get worse no matter what we do because they are OLD! There is no option to avoid that situation
This isn’t trading Cornato and Weegar and (well that’s really all we have for an established long term core)
Waiting 5 years for 32 overall picks to have a 15% chance to become a 500 games played nhl career isn’t going to convince wolf to stay either when he’s 30!
