Don’t think we have ever used cap space to bury bad contracts outside the ones the Flames signed themselves.

Big difference,   if they are moved in the summer,   the return will likely have 2024 draft picks
 
Which is a weaker draft than 2023
 
As others mentioned,   Lewis, Backlund, Tanev, Lucic (if possible) all should have been moved...

And I guess I heard 11 1sts have been traded as of some time yesterday. I really wish the Flames could’ve gotten an extra 23 1st.

Why would they keep them?   Both are pending UFAs
 
With a deep draft,  Flames should be acquiring picks....   
 
Even if they are a 4th or 5th round selection.
 
Luke Schenn obtain a 3rd.

			As long as there’s any kind of chance at making the playoffs, the Flames won’t sell. Edwards’ goal has always been to be competitive and make a profit. And the only way to achieve that is to get at least one round of playoffs. 
 
Of course that hasn’t worked out too well for the Flames. In terms of playoff series played over the last 15 years, they’re close to dead last in the league.

Less about keeping more about someone wanting them. Lucic would also have to waive. Every team has guys like Lewis.

Yeah, if all the Flames were UFAs this deadline then sure. I just never expected them to sell unless an offer was too good to turn down. I think they should but it will be retool trades in the off-season. I’m not looking forward to the next deadline if they don’t do anything in the off-season cause then they will all be walked to UFA
