I think he's more interested in tinkering, trading one or two guys for an upgrade, adding a new UFA to fill one who just left. But I just don't think Darryl will have any interest in young guys who are learning on the job, I think he's going to want impactful veterans, good talented difference makers in the prime of their careers rather than a second or third year player with plenty of potential, but who makes noob mistakes.
You're thinking more "reset".

I found this which is a pretty good explanation. You could argue that the Flames should do a mix between "reset" and "retool".
