Doing a Hartnell & 3 for 6 would be a massive steal. The Flames would be nicely setup going into next season and years down the road.
Gaudreau-Monahan-Hartnell
Ferland-Bennett-Pulijarvi
Colborne-Backlund-Frolik
Bolig-Stajan-Hathaway
Shinkaruk
Hartnell provides a physical dynamic sorely missing on the Gaudreau-Monahan line. Not many people will mess with Johnny while Hartnell is on the ice. I see Ferland and Hathaway learning a ton from Hartnell too. Pollboy fits perfectly with Bennett. The LW position is kind of open on this line, but there are plenty of interesting players to audition, including Prybil who I do not have on the roster coming out of the gate. He would be a very interesting player to have on that line. The third line is going to be tough to contain. Lots of potential there. I'd love to see the 4th line completely overhauled, and both Bollig and Stajan sent packing, but I think we have to suck it up for a year.
That trade could set this team up in an incredible way.
