Proposal: Useful Cap dump to Flames?

[FLAMESFAN]

OK, I originally hoped the Flames could pick top 5 this year and draft that elusive franchise Center. That ain't happening, and I doubt top 10 is either. So we're gonna have to try for playoffs since we'll be handing Montreal our 1st.

Who's a useful depth player on your team that you'd like to trade to open up capspace? The thought is that the Flames could add a player to get them there, and gain a good pick in the process.

Looking for a hardworking, defensive, physical player that is just over priced. Preferrably with maybe only 1 more year on his contract. No albatross type offers please.

Ryan Lindgren is your man if you need a defenseman.

This has potential....
What would you offer as a pick for Lindgren? Rangers are a little barren for extra picks
Hanley for Lindgren & 2026 3rd?

Stars will give you Matt Dumba55!

hmmm Is he still useful? Dumba from a few years ago I'd be all over that
Dumba & 2nd for Hanley? I don't like the extra year on Dumba blocking Solo & Kuz though

Brandon Saad for your 2nd

I doubt the Flames are interested in cap dumps with term, especially middling players with 4M+ cap hits. Maybe if that player comes with a sweetener, they certainly aren't paying anything to take that on.
