The improvement we would see by replacing Hamilton with Subban is far too small to justify giving up additional assets and increasing our cap hit by over $3 million - money we will need to pay for Bennett and mid-pair defencemen that we do need.

What? The difference between Hamilton and Subban is vast. Subban is a Norris trophy/Olympic defenseman. Hamilton is the Flames currently getting less ice time than Russell
Klimchuk is a throw in.
The 1st pick is the real risk - and that is all based on the lottery at this point.
