But the Flames are not going to have much luck squeezing him in, when you have to think about signing Hanifin, Lindholm, then Tkachuk next offseason. Even after Frolik and Stone get traded/test UFA and buying Brouwer out I don't think this is long-term viable in terms of cap management.
Cap goes up, Neal doesn't have a NTC, Smith possibly gone and a kid in net on a ELC, there will be lots of options.
