My only problem with a Glencross trade is that we'd be trading him at his lowest value in many years. I don't think we'll get the return we want trading him alone. If we're looking to unload underachieving vets, why not trade Stajan as well?
I'd like to see the Flames acquire a second pairing d-man, preferably one with size and physicality. I'd package someone like Smid with Glencross if the d-man coming back was of similar size and had a beter puck moving game. I'd also consider packaging a prospect like Baertschi to get a young player in return. Don't mind taking on a lot of salary to get a deal done, as long as the player(s) coming back can help us.
