I wouldn't be against moving either of those. However, Brodie isn't a player the Avs need, and Gaudreau is in an usual position where that boom/bust chance will make it hard to predict his trade value.
The Avs' current needs are future wingers or current D. The Flames are woefully low on similar positions. Before this season, I would have suggested Giordano as a starting point and working up from that, but with that option cratering, I admit I'm hard pressed to come up with a trade that works which puts the Flames moving to a younger team. That is, unless the Avs don't mind gambling that Bouwmeester is Hartley system Bouwmeester and not Sutter's Bouwmeester.
