I would love for the Flames to be able to pry Manttha and Frk out of Detroit. Even though Frk has had injury probs over the last year, I think he's very good up the middle. Was the Center between Drouin and McKinnon too so knows how to play a fast tempo, skilled game but is a bigger body.
If there was a deal like Wideman and Backlund for Mantha and Frk as the main pieces, I'd be very happy. Of course the Flames would need to retain salary or take on a anchor contract to free up some space for Detroit. But I think Back's and Wide's would do very well there.
