There are a lot of players kicking around the fringes of the league that basically have no trade value. A guy like Smithson or Steckel would cost like Nemisz or a conditional 7th rounder that teams have no use for but could absolutely help the Flames right now.

Of course they need a number one center, but any center will do and make this team better right away without giving up anything of value.
