## Resource

Calgary Flames just drafted nine new prospects, but their real off-season mission is clear: trade away forwards and defensemen on NHL contracts to make room for the future. With nearly 20 forwards already in the league or on the verge, young talent like Blake Coleman, Connor Zary, Martin Pospisil, Ryan Strome, and even inconsistent Yegor Sharangovich are potential trade targets. On defense, Brayden Pachal and Joel Hanley could be moved for picks or prospects, while the Flames face a tough choice with rising star Hunter Brzustewicz — trade him or move a veteran like Zach Whitecloud. With the league favoring sellers, now’s the time to shed veteran contracts and open NHL spots for prospects like Aydar Suniev and Rory Kerins. The goal? Clear the path for the next generation.
