Parise of interest assuming he’s interested in going to Calgary? Makes league minimum, decent PKer and solid bottom 6 guy with quite a bit of experience.

How about Burroughs? He's a youngish physical #5-6 rd and really cheap for this year and next. Price wouldn't be too high.
Pretty indifferent. As I said originally, I would want a player that could fill in for Tanev/Andersson if either were to go down. We already have Stone as a 3rd pair RD and Valimaki who can fill anywhere on the left side. So basically what I would be looking is someone like Valimaki but not necessarily still a "prospect." Hence my interest in Stecher

Calgary's lack of centre depth is overstated:

Lindholm
Monahan/Backlund
Ruzicka

Obviously it would be better to upgrade at #2, but how is that realistically going to happen? That's like saying wouldn't it be great if the Flames acquired Kucherov, and didn't have to worry about cap or asset costs.

Both Parise and Clutterbuck would interest me.
Great vets for a playoff run

Parise is a bit cheaper car wise without retention. I could see either moved for picks, maybe with a minor leaguer or b/c tier prospect if a bidding war happens between teams.

Let’s not even kid ourselves anymore:

Lindholm
Backlund
Ruzicka
Monahan

When Monahan looks bad, he looks ungodly bad.

If I’m the Gm I’m seeing if Jankrok wants to keep his shit in town while he’s still here right now.

Chiarot was apparently of interest to the Flames in the Toffoli deal, and once healthy could still be an option.

At 50% retained and with a 7th rounder, he'd cost either 2 2nd rounders or a 2nd and pretty good prospect.

Probably not but they both have no value
Perhaps, but I'd definitely move Drouin for Monahan. Centers are hard to acquire, and Drouin is likely gone pretty soon anyways.

I'd rather get Monahan as a #2 center for the immediate future and move Dvorak for picks.

Chiarot would be a healthy scratch so no he is not worth paying 2 2nds to get at all. Also Calgary is reportedly out on Chiarot (thank god)

Can't see why the Flames would have interest in Chariot. They don't need a guy who can play 20+ minutes. The top four is set. They also already have zadarov and Gudbranson in their bottom pair, doing everything that Chariot would do.

If anything the Flames need a power play specialist who can fire bombs from the point. Basically the exact opposite of Chariot.
