Proposal: Useful Cap dump to Flames?

Jarnkrok when healthy for a 5th would be fine

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.

As a hab fan I approve of this idea.

Remember when hab fans were being laughed at for thinking the CGY pick could possibly be coming to us and not Florida's?

I sure do... Good times!

Go Flames!!

The premise of this thread is that the Flames aren't picking in the top-5 which I just can't understand.

On December 31st last year, the Coyotes were still quite firmly in the playoff spot and ended up picking at #6. Surely there is still plenty of time for the Flames' wheels to fall off, which everyone should reasonably expect to happen. Their leading scorer is a defenseman on 0.6 PPG pace. I don't understand what bringing in another roster player would do for them.

Surely you either sit tight and wait or even consider selling high on someone like Andersson.

First player I thought of was Josh Anderson if you scratch the good defensively bit of your post

Charlie Coyle. Oh, you said useful not out of shape and useless. My mistake.
