With all his playoff experience, Oduya would get you a 2nd rounder at the trade deadline you would think. So if I was the Hawks I would at least ask for that.
Maybe the Flames offer to take Oduya in exchange for a 3rd rounder and then deal him back to the Hawks at the deadline for 2nd rounder. The Flames would also eat 50% of his remaining salary. Probably too risky for what could only be a small improvement in draft position.
