Baertschi and Gaudreau will be one of the future of this organization. So trading one or both is stupid. I think the Flames are in a rebuilding process. No thanks to Seguin unless the Bruins will pick up some of our vets. How about Backlund plus first round pick + 3rd round pick?

I was thinking Backlund, Cammalleri (half of his salary eaten) and a secondary prospect like Granlund. They get a proven vet for the year, a solid 3rd line center for now and the future, and a solid prospect for the future as well. Seguin is good, but he isn't worth selling the farm to get. Don't forget the Flames are taking on a $5+ million salary in the deal. That's a lot of money.
