WWYDW: Let’s fix the Flames by opening up some cap space

It’s safe to say that the Calgary Flames haven’t had the season thus far that they had envisioned. Coming out of Tuesday night’s game with the Colorado Avalanche, they’re a game south of .500. They have very little cap space to work with and any call-ups will be tinkering on the fringes of the roster.

Case in point? Tuesday’s recall of Zac Rinaldo.
