I just don't think that sort of a trade will be available: Acquiring a replacement for Wideman or Engelland will likely cost more than the Flames will be willing to spend now. I expect more change at the draft and in the summer than I do at the TD.
Why not just replace Kulak with Wideman, then. That would be an upgrade. Let Wideman sit out as he's too slow and a turnover machine. Brodie's game would probably improve partnered with Kulak, as well.
