I know this might not seem like a lot but something around Backlund, Wideman (salary retained) and a prospect like Granlund/Knight/Reinhart for Kadri + filler. I keep hearing the Leaf fans screaming for a top 4 RHD. Phanuef, Gleason, Gunnarson, Rielly are the only signed D beyond this year. If the Flames retained 1.25M per of Widemans salary he looks awfully good at $4M. The Leafs are looking at signing Bolland to likely 2nd line money this summer. Backlund slides in nicely at the 3 spot and a prospect that adds depth and could play if injuries occur.
I doubt that gets it done but that would be the most I would want the Flames offering. Brodie, Sven, 1st should not be in the discussion
