You just can't keep giving up multiple picks and prospects to acquire players, even good young players. The math just won't work.

Ultimately, you have to hit on enough of your own picks.

I think both 2023 1st and Coronato - is too much for Chychrun.
I can see Coronato + Kylington and 2rd or 3rd or any B type prospect.
Our 1st must be kept. if you need trade it, trade during the draft. The price will sky high.

Frank talkin’ about how ARZ may be willing to retain salary on Chychrun to maximize return.

That’d be exciting.

Seems like a bad look to move Kylington while he's on the IR for personal issues.

As they should.

In the NHL it became this idea that you should only retain salary on "bad contracts"

But honestly retaining salary on a good contract would garner even better trade returns, and opens up more of the market for you to get the best return available when so many teams are cap constrained.

I had mentioned it in the offseason when the discussion was still for re-build vs going for it (prior to Huberdeau/Kadri acquisitions).

If you're not going to be a cap team anyways then you should try to retain to get the best possible deal - especially if it's only 1-2 year deals.

if Flames brass know that signing Coronato could be an issue and/or they plan to trade Hanifin instead of re-signing him long-term, I'm not against it. Hell, I'd surely take it over burning assets for the Luke Schenns of this world ...

I'd pay a lot to get Chychrun with salary retained. It would give Treliving options next summer with a guy like that for 2 years at $2.3 to $3.5 mil ranges depending on how much salary they retain.

Can straight add him no salary dump this year.

after this long, I don't think it would be that bad of a look.
At a certain point you have a business to worry about.

It would make sense for LA to dump Peterson in this. It's not inconceivable that he could play himself back into some value

Getting Chychrun and then flipping Hanifin wouldn't be the worst asset management. Although I am not sure how much better he is than Hanifin

I'd take him over Hanifin but even if he is no better than Hanifin, Chychrun has an extra year.

Hanifin at $4.95 mil is a keeper. That will change in 1 year and could be north of $8 mil maybe $9 mil.

maybe he isn't much better, but cost-controlled and a year longer under contract. If, after getting Chychrun, you can flip Hanifin in the summer with an extension in place, I think it's solid asset management.

not that I think it'll happen, but fun to think about.

Hanifin has been solid for us. Good thing we’re getting rid of him. We need less of that.

it's not about wanting to get rid of him, it's about long-term decisions that this organization will have to make. Lindholm becomes a UFA at the same time, as is Toffoli. All of these players are in line for long-term contracts at a high AAV, so they surely can't sign everybody. I like Hanifin, so if he and the team can find a number that works for both sides, then great. If not, you'll have to trade him.

Lindholm and Hanifin with 50% retained should be worth two 1sts and a prospect easily.

All I’m sayin’.

The Flames with a lot of contracts coming up next year will need to make decisions. I do think they should consider shopping both Lindholm and Hanifin for younger pieces next year. Lindholm is going to make at least $9M per on an 8 year deal that takes effect in the season he turns 30. Hanifin is poised for $8M as well based on his solid play over this past contract. Ideally if guys like Tanev and Backlund re-sign they will take pay cuts. Toffoli will be tough to keep and not think he could fall off a cliff like James Neal did when he was signed and he could command $5M+. Dube likely also gets a sizable raise while Zadorov might be looking for a long term deal as he approaches 30.

I hope the team moves off some of these guys this summer when they have value vs signing them to long term deals or walking them to free agency to be lost for nothing. Lindholm is the best forward on the team so I would be surprised if they didn’t extend him this summer but he could potentially return an intriguing young player who could be a key piece down the road.
