Sure. And they would be trading Brodie + a first + more in that situation. They could get a Stempniak equivalent for less than this, and I doubt the Flames even consider trading Glencross - a guy who wants to be here and looks to be the go-to scorer next season - for much less than a package that sees MacKinnon coming our way.
If you want to speculate about the Flames drafting top five in this draft, any deal that does not involve us giving up the 6th pick, plus Brodie or Baertschi + more is not realistic.
