Ideal world keep Bouwmeester, and Gio. Though somewhere that defense needs a guy that plays with more grit.
He's on the block because he's the best asset the Flames have that other teams will covet for this year and next, and if Iginla goes, the build is on past next year anyways.
Full credit to him for embracing Hartley's system and showing he is still that offensive player that teams were lining up for his services July 1 2009 and boosting his value up.
But, time to maximize his return and this is the year to do it given all the different league circumstances this year.
