I am hoping an upgrade to Peluso or Hathaway appears on the waiver wires. Flames are at 44 out of 50 NHL contracts so taking a player off waivers and burying a Peluso of Hathaway in the minors doesn't really hurt the team right now (assuming the player claimed off waivers has a similar cap hit to Hathaway).

For example, while I think it is unlikely that it actually happens, but if the Lightning waive Andreoff, that is someone the Flames should put a claim on. He would be a significant upgrade on Peluso in hockey ability and can still drop the gloves.

I am sure there are maybe a few other names on other teams that could at least be an upgrade on Peluso.
