The All-Star Break is behind us. The trade deadline is just six short weeks away. The Calgary Flames are in a playoff spot.
Let’s dive into the mailbag, pals!
A healthy Monahan or Backlund who would you prefer to move to make cap space for #13, 19, 88, 58? Who would be easier to move caveat being Monahan is looking healthier now.

Moving Sean Monahan would probably be easier than moving Mikael Backlund, if both are fully healthy.
Monahan is younger, has produced consistently this season on the power play (even though he’s been offensively blah at even strength) and his contract only has one year remaining on it at $6.
