The Stars are trying to win now and they have a real chance this year to be fighting to come out of the West to play the Capitals. If they aren't liking nichuskin's development trajectory and possible injury concerns, adding Hudler to their top 6 and a depth 2 way defender for their playoff run could be extremely enticing.
This is absolutely possible. Like the OP of the speculation states, there's risk for both sides, if the UFAs walk / if Nichuskin busts. Long term upside potential for the Flames and short term upside for the Stars.
