Calgary Flames :
(C) Mikael Backlund (5.35 x 3yrs)
(LHD) TJ Brodie (4.65 x 1yr)
Minnesota Wild :
(LHD) Ryan Suter (7.54M x 6yrs)
(C) Joel Eriksson Ek (RFA)
(2019) 12th Overall Selection (1st Rd Pick)
(RW) Dante Salituro

(Minnesota becomes competitive still while shedding a large contract and adding a need at center while getting a replacement top 4 lhd, while Calgary does the same but adding a better top 4 defencemen to help out their defence core and get a valuable pick, a fringe bottom 6 player who could do better with a change of scenery & a B prospect)

#2

Calgary Flames :
(2019) 28th Overall Selection (1st Rd Pick)
(C) Dillon Dube (ELC)
(LHD) Rushan Rafikov (KHL)
New York Rangers :
(C) Mika Zibanejad (5.35M x 3yrs)

(Rangers continue help their rebuild and add three valuable pieces while also shedding some salary, while Flames gain a 2nd Line Center)

#3

Calgary Flames :
(RW) Michael Frolik (4.30M x 1yr)
Arizona Coyotes :
(2019) 76th Overall Selection (3rd Rd Pick)

(Coyotes add some scoring touch and energy as Frolik can either fit in your Top 6 or Bottom 6 and Flames get a pick and free up cap space)

#4

Calgary Flames :
(RW) James Neal (5.75M x 4yrs)
(RW) D'Artagnan Joly (QMJHL)
(D) Oliver Kylington (ELC)
(2019) 92nd Overall Selection (3rd Rd Pick)
Ottawa Senators :
(2019) 216th Overall Pick (7th Rd Pick)

(Flames free up more needed cap space, Ottawa gains a leadership character for some of the young guys, B prospect, 3rd Round Pick & a promising young LHD)

I hate the first trade as a flames fan, sutter is on a bad contract imo and the whole reason we should be trading brodie is to make space for vali.
