The Flames HAVE to make moves, thats the problem.
I'm sad that nothing has transpired yet.

Our current roster (24 players) which includes Gillies as the 3rd goalie has us sitting at roughly $85,941,708 which is $4,441,708 over the CAP.

This is an estimate based on the following player contracts (RFA's)

Tkachuk - 8.25M
Bennett - 2.75M
Mangiapane - 1.15M
Rittich - 2.5M

We're in trouble, we absolutely need to shed both Brodie and Frolik's salary make room for our young guys to move up and maybe even buyout Stone's contract if we want to dip into UFA/trade territory.
