I think this could be a great trade deadline for the Flames.
They could take on a expiring bad value contract from a contender so that they can build a better team in exchange for some picks. The Flames also have arguably one of the best value contracts to trade in Ras, which should easily be worth more than a 1st because of the new circumstances. It would be pretty awesome to see the Flames utilize their cap space in an aggressive way this year. I didn't think it was a possibility, but the new rules really change things.
I guess I should first ask if there are even any one year contracts that a contender would love to get rid of?
