It actually looks like the Flames traded their heart away with Andersson.
This is good. They couldn't afford to climb up further and put themselves outside of the reach of the top 4. The flames organization needs to draft a top talent in June and it looks like the first trade may be enough to seal the deal.
Hopefully they can add another 1st in this draft from one of their other trade targets too.
Embrace the tank, we may only need to be bottom of the barrel this year and next to fill out the future core that will carry the team to a level they haven't reached in decades.
