They ship out $16M in cap, draft a top 3 pick and sign a big UFA. Potentially have 4 1sts this year as they already have Carolina's 1st this year.

I really don't see why they can't do a quick flip and be set move forward with one trade deadline of selling.
It's funny - when the Flames were about as far from the bottom as NYR, people were freaking out that they were too good.

Hard to say what Panarin gets as a rental. He's still very good. But a winger, expensive even with some retention, and 34.
