No way. Alzners local junior career and draft position puts him higher in peoples minds than he really is. He was Washingtons #4 Dman in terms of time on ice (0:19 ahead of being the #5) and has a career high of 21 pts in the NHL. I'd flip my lid if the Flames traded a 60+ point forward that has had great success mentoring the youth for a #4-#5 1 way (no offence) Dman.
I'm all for trading Hudler if the right trade (over payment) comes along, but a trade for a guy that has settled in as a middling 20 pt defensive Dman is NOT the trade we can accept.
