Hailey Salvian of The Athletic: There is definitely mutual interest between Zach Hyman and the Calgary Flames. The question becomes can Calgary sign the forward. Better yet, can they agree on a reasonable amount and term.
The talk is that Hyman could easily generate $5.5 to $6 million AAV on a six or more year contract. That appears to be a lot of money but it has become the going rate of sorts. This is based on the Josh Anderson deal. (7 years, $38.5 million). It makes quite a bit of sense.
