Early indications are Murray is going to be a fantastic goaltender, so I'd jump for joy if the Flames could get their hands on him. But we're also talking about a guy that only a couple of months ago could hypothetically have been had in a return for Kris Russell, or so you saw in many trade proposals from armchair GM's around here.
I'd personally rather part with lesser assets (2nd round picks + prospect) for a guy like Andersen. I'm fully on board with getting a goaltender and using draft picks as currency, just not a top 10 pick.

Right, but trade proposals around here are from homer Flames fans. If you went to HF trades or HF Penguins, you would never see those kinds of proposals agreed upon. They would be criticized and laughed at by not only Pens fans, but also fans of other teams looking in from the outside
