I'd be scared of exactly the same thing happening with a new GM who doesn't know what's in our system. He'll come in and get rid of some of the most promising guys.
Meh, I would put the chances of a new GM trading one of the Flames 6 or 7 (and this might be a stretch) legitimate NHL prospects who are under the age of 24 as highly unlikely.
