Kakko should cost less than what Florida paid for Bennett

I don't think NY is trying to get anybody to "take on" KK, he's not close to negative value. It's been reported they WANT a first for him.
But I'm with you, I'd love to get him - just not at the cost of a first.

Sprong is still out there as well, but we don't really need guys like this on the Flames IMO

I've seen Gurianov connected to some Russian teams, but nothing definitively announced yet.

Sorry, I just realized Kappo Kakko and Kotkiniemi are both KK.
I meant that I would trade something (not a 1st) for Kakko and I would take ok Kotkiniemi if we got a 1st (even if we had to throw in something of lesser value).

Last season he had 18 goals and 43 points averaging just 12:00 per game (76 games played). The year before, he had 21 goals and 46 points while averaging just 11:25 minutes per game (in only 66 games played).
I would have loved the Flames to give him a contract like that has an asset that could later be flipped, but I recognize there is already a bit of a log jam at wing and it is important to give the young guys more rope right now.

Plethora. A dearth is a lack of something.

Buffalo has called to inquire as to the availability of Coleman.
Flames have once again checked in on the Necas price, sounds like NYR are standing firm on the 1st for now.

Coleman is the exact type of player Buffalo needs. I would love to see if the Flames could get Kulich for him.

I'd say "Why would Buffalo do that?" But they just traded Matthew Savoie for Ryan McLeod, so...

Would love to get Kulich and/or Ostlund in the fold.
Would have liked to get Savoie, but he now stinks.
