Description
Flames need more scoring depth, but probably can't afford to give a long term deal to a JVR or James Neal, so instead they could flip Stone for Boedker and sign a secondary UFA in Riley Nash.

The forward group here gives a lot of flexibility to move guys up and down the lineup as they get hot/struggle, and has Spencer Foo in the minors as a callup option.

On D, the top 4 is pretty set, but Kulak, Pateryn and Andersson can battle it out for the bottom pairing, and any of the three can move up to top 4 to cover injuries as needed.

Ottawa saves a bit of money and gets more incentive for Mark Stone to stay.

Additional Details:
Calgary adds another guy who can play up and down the lineup and chip in a few goals. Both sides dump a bad contract for a bad contract.

Calgary wants to get out from under this money. Boedker makes the situation worse for them so they probably pass.

Which is a good idea in theory if you can move Stone for picks, but I don't see that happening, and Boedker fills a more useful role for the same length of time, and basically the same money.

Boedker won't be coming to CGY with that $4M cap hit unless Frolik isn't around with his $4.3M cap hit. Next year is fine, but gets tight with the new contracts.

Lindholm will get $4.5-$5M without a doubt. Anything less and Treliving and Peters are working serious magic. Could see Lindholm and Hanifin doing matching $5M x 6 year deals.

I pulled comparables for both players in this post: https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/747430

---------------------

Would love Riley Nash, but he'll catch $3M+ from someone.
Love Khudobin but he'll probably stay in BOS somehow. Bernier, Hutton, Ward would be my 3 guys to focus on in that case.
Pateryn at that price/term would be a fantastic Stone replacement.

Frolik is much more effective than Boedker at this point. The 3M line is one of the most effective 2 way lines in hockey right now.

I’d give you Okposo for Frolik and Bennett
