McGrattan - for a 6th
Drew Shore - for something. We clearly don't need him, and I think we picked him up as a strategic move to stockpile assets and get better value out of him down the road.

I think that's it. Don't see us trading our UFAs or taking on one of the forwards out there.

I think you'l see Shore at some point this year, perhaps post deadline. He'll be re-signed too. Big RH RW/C the Flames can put in a some point.

No Glencross and O'Reilly can play LW. Or, Could center Colborne and Wolf...

Either way. i think the road was paved for O'Reilly to be a Flame with the offer sheet fiasco and I think the Flames have the assets to pull it off.

I could see Glencross + Sven for O'Reilly.
