Hamilton is maybe a better player but Hamonic is on a better contract and more what the Flames need. Also, if the Flames don't get him someone in the west will.

Wait, what?  You think Hamilton is better, but Hamonic is on a better contract, so you trade Hamilton because you don't want someone else to get Hamonic, a player not as good as Hamilton?  I guess we better trade for Kessel, because Johnny is going to have a very expensive contract, and even though he is a better player than Kessel, we don't want anyone getting Kessel who we might compete against, because he'll be on a cheaper contract.
