I think (hope) the Flames are being vary carefull of a return like the Smyth trade. It looked great at the time, 2 recent first round picks and a 3rd one coming

Nilsson + O'Marra + Plante - 242 NHL games, and it looks like all of their NHL careers might have come to a swift end within 5 years.

That makes me think maybe they are asking for a Saad, Bennett, or Tarasenko..... Guys they know they are NHL ready and not AHL/KHL bound.

Those teams are probably saying, we are trying to add not subtract.

So maybe Iginla will have to be packaged with a guy like Stempniak?

Iginla + Stempnaik < - > Bennett + Drumilon + 1st

Iginla to add to the roster, Stempniak to replace Bennett
