Hmm
Hirvonen has zero NHL value, maybe he can be part of an AHL deal
Klingberg and his cap hit have negative value right now, let’s say the 5th
So a mid 1st for Tanev retained…hmm…maybe but I think you get outbid

Would do but we don’t need the retention more likely they accept

Flames don't need to help the Leafs by taking on Klingberg, Hirovinen is a nothing burger and the first should be a bottom of the draft pick. Quality not quantity. Niemala is way more interesting and stuck behind a backlog of RD with McCabe, Liljegren, Timmens.

McCabe plays LD on the leafs. Niemala will leap Timmons on the depth chart next season.
