These are all players that have been traded in the past 12 months. I can keep going if you want. The point is, you can make trades.

Since the Flames are trying to make the POs I assume they tried to get those guys.
And some of those guys, like Hughes and Miller, demanded a trade or forced their way out (and others were the guys traded for them).
Most of the others were expiring contracts after this season, like Andersson and not like Coleman and Kadri. Of those, Coyle got a second, Brad Marchand was traded for a conditional second, Marner got Nick Roy, Smith got Brisson and a 3rd rounder, Granlund and Ceci together got a late first... I can go on if you want. Those aren't satisfactory returns for any of Kadro, Andersson or Coleman, let alone good ones.
