For basically the entire first half of the season, the Calgary Flames have had either a teeny, tiny amount of cap space or functionally no actual cap space. That all changed when they sent Michael Frolik to the Buffalo Sabres last week.
Suddenly, general manager Brad Treliving has money to spend. This week for What Would You Do Wednesday we ask: how would you spend the Flames’ cap space?
Depending on whether Juuso Valimaki stays on the long-term injury reserve or not, the Flames can add either $4.79 million in cap hits at the trade deadline or $3.
