Almost all teams avoid a rebuild. Flames are one of the only teams in the past 10 years t2hat I can think of that have fully embraced a rebuild. So that fact also works against the likelihood of any of those players being available. Couple that with that fact that almost none of those players are similar in value to Ras and it is pretty much just a list of defencemen.

Explain to me what you see that makes Ras so much better than Pulock? Key dman on a team that went to the conference finals 2 years in a row. Puts up 25-35 points a year and is a very good defensive dman.
Ras is going to get at least a mil per year more and a contract that ends when he is 38 vs Pulock's contract that ends when he is 35.
oIf the Flames want 1sts and blue chip prospects and NYI wants B level prospect and 2nds, I'm taking Pulock as I believe he is every bit a good as Ras.
