But yeah, it might not be an issue -- and if it is, it's probably not a bad issue as the Flames will have some breakout depth. It's just why I was hoping for a bit of a longer term contract for Zary, like Coronato, so that the Flames could use some of their current cap space to offset their future cap.
I'm a huge fan of wrapping players up long term over the bridge deal. I really like Zary, but I don't see the numbers coming in that will break the bank in his next contract. I think Coronato has more potential to put up the points to get a big raise after a bridge deal.

I just don't see w huge risk with Zary.
