Then we get into the talk of Columbus wanting to dump Hartnell or Clarkson in the deal. Bennett is already worth more than Puljujarvi so how can they dump a bad contract as well?
If the Flames get the 3rd pick it is going to be a trade up scenario. Of course I don't know that for sure but logic and common sense point to that being the method they use to get the pick.

1. What's to say Puljujarvi isn't what the flames management covet? It's pretty clear he is with the reports from Garrioch and Globe & Mail.
2. I don't expect Columbus will be able to unload either Hartnell or Clarkson if the cost is Bennett.
3. You're probably right, but to shut it down and say there's 0 chance it's possible I don't think is fair either.
