No need to jump to that. Gaudreau hasn't really had the injuries that Sven has had and has shown a better ability to elude contact.
Sides, how many smallish forwards can you have? Flames are going to have to make some decisions in the near future anyways with regards to these young prospects. You can't have Sven, Gaudreau, Granlund, Backlund, all taking up top 6 spots, especially if you already have Hudler signed long term. And if this talk about signing Cammy has any legs, well, there's another one.
I'm not saying trade Sven right now, i'm saying that if there is a good deal where the Flames can get a similar type of young player like Sven but in a position of weakness, then the Flames should consider it strongly.
For example, if the Flames could land a Brayden Schenn in a package where Sven is the centrepiece, I think the Flames should consider it.
