Edit, I was wrong, they are not into the LTIR at the moment, but they are projected to be over the cap by the end of the season without more changes.

Pettersson (27), Boeser (28), Garland (29), Hronek (28) all signed for 6 more years.
Pettersson (29) and DeBrusk (29) signed for 5 more years
Demko and Lankinen together for 3 more years
That is a lot of veteran talent, signed for a very long time.
The Flames have a better prospect base, more upcoming picks, and will be trading valuable vets for more picks and prospects shortly.
But yeah, VAN is WAY ahead of us with the rebuild. /s
