Friends, the Calgary Flames have some unfinished business remaining this summer but they’re largely done – and mostly fine, cap-wise, for 2018-19 due to the Troy Brouwer buyout. But their two big pieces of business will undoubtedly have big salary cap implications for the 2019-20 season.
Per comments from general manager Brad Treliving, Noah Hanifin’s amenable to a long-term deal. Per our pal Pat Steinberg, Matthew Tkachuk is in the same boat regarding his impending contract extension. Both are going to be pricey. The Flames are fine for this season’s cap, but can they fit everybody comfortably under the cap in 2019-20?
