I wonder...
To save cap space...
Trade BSD.
Sign Thomas Greiss on a 1 yr cheap deal as our backup...
(though a offseason activity, Greiss loves mountain biking - would love to show him the trails around here ; )

Can we try this first?

Amen!
Give this kid a chance to show off his offensive capabilities and for friggsake play him top 6 all season.
He’s said himself he played the right side his entire career before joining the Calgary organization.
A Valimaki-Kylington bottom pairing very is intriguing to me.

I wouldn't mind trying to get Cody Ceci or Tanev on the cheap. I know that it wouldn't be sexy but it would leave cap space to improve the Flames scoring.
Hanifin - Andersson
Gio - Tanev/Ceci
Valiamki - Petrovic/ Yelish
Kyllington.
This obviously won't blow you away, but it would be a stable enough group without saddling your team with a boat anchor contract.

On the right contract Tanev would be a great signing.

I tthink Kylington needs to be tried for a period on the right side. His skating (like brodie) can help get him out of issues.

Our PK was pretty strong in 2016-17 when Backlund-Frolik and Bennett-Chiasson were the pairings. Monahan's play on the kill in 2014-15 was respectable too.

I don’t think we’re getting Greiss for much less than BSD’s $2.75M.
Rittich went to the All Star game last year. He may not be a true #1, and it’s obviously Markstrom’s net for now, but it isn’t as though Dave can’t play.
I think the backup spot might be a case of less is more, and we’d be better served to roll with the devil we know.

Agreed would expect us to contend forsure.
That third line would be absolute hell to pay against .
Then our power plays:
PP1
Lindholm - Tkachuk - Monahan
Gaudreau - Anderson
PP2
Toffoli - Bennett - Dube
Mangiapane - Giordano
PK1
Backlund - Mangiapane
Brodano
PK2
Linholm - Bennett
Valamaki-Anderson
Solid!

Rittich has the quirky personality of a great backup too.
I hope he sticks around and ends up being happy to be a backup for us.

Super quiet on Hall, which IMO is good - no bidding war. Hall’s hope for a big Panarin type payday might be dwindling.
