			Wow. Having him remain an RFA at the end of this is the best part. Well, the dollars work too. Good deal.

Yupp, after this contract if he signs a one year deal he will be UFA.

Frolik for picks and maybe a Stone buyout?? I’m doubting more and more that we deal Brodie this offseason.

			I would have preferred more term, but that was a bit of a pipe dream, and at least he's still an RFA at the end of this deal.

Very true, still some big fish to land in the UFA markets could me potential suitors for Brodie and Frolik could be waiting to see their fate in the UFA pool.
 
Williams  
Gardiner 
Maroon  
Hutton 
Thornton  
Marleau 
Brassard
 
Still some names though it seems obvious Thornton/Marleau are destined for SJ and Williams for Carolina (I think he would be such a sneak good add for our 2nd line on a one year deal but know it’s doubtful) 
 
Maybe once a few more things fall into place in the UFA market we see some more movement on the trade front.

If Frolik is moved I could see Tkachuk - Backs - Bennett doing really well together.
 
Call it the 3B line instead, with Tkachuk being a real Bastard out there.

Yup, my personal dream scenario is the Flames trading Frolik for a pick, buying out Stone, signing Tkachuk, Mangiapane, and Rittich, and then signing Williams for between $3M-$4M per year. Thus, I think other teams will want to try just signing Williams or one of the other forwards before giving up an asset for Frolik. It’s the same with Brodie and Gardiner.

Call it the 3B line instead, with Tkachuk being a real Bastard out there.

Bennett worked really well with Backs before Chuckles came. Could be a great fit for all 3.
