I don't think there is anything in the organization you don't look at trading other than draft picks if it means you can acquire another top 10 or top 5 pick this year.
There is such a lack of can't miss in our system that I would deal Baertschi if it meant another pick in the top 5-7 of the draft this year.
This franchise absolutely needs quality before anything else. I like Baertschi and think he is a quality prospect, but he's a tier below where the Flames need to be and as such, for me, wouldn't be untouchable if it meant getting a very high end draft pick, or the equivalent under 20 years old.
