Who knows. I think they need to do it though for the long-term plans, and it doesn't matter if they can't replace Huds right away. This team is still rebuilding. There seems to be significant interest from other teams for Hudler & Russell.
As unfavourable as trading those two may seem now, the Flames have to take advantage of the value of those two because they will probably get something pretty decent back for those two guys. Gotta sell what you have if it has value when you're in the rebuilding stage that the Flames are.
