If Tampa can't get fair value in terms of a young player back they may want to dump a contract like Carle on the team taking him. He has zero points and makes $5.5M against the cap for 2 more seasons after this. Way too rich for the Flames to take on considering the Wideman, Smid, and Enellend contracts do not expire this year.
Flames assets the Lightning may want that the Flames would part with include Russell, Hudler, and several prospects. I would include any one of Kylington, Anderson, or Hickey in a deal for Drouin. Porier , Klimchuck or Jankowski as well.
