More speculation than rumor, but what the heck:

E.J. Hradek, who was part of the conversation, wondered if the Calgary Flames might be a player for Duchene.

Hradek speculated about a package involving someone like a Sam Bennett, goaltending prospect Tyler Parsons, and something else.

“You know, I have to tell you – Calgary might be the one team I haven’t heard in all of this,” said a smiling Friedman. “But it doesn’t mean that that’s not the case. I think the biggest question in Calgary would be if you look, they’ve got a lot of their guys signed. Gaudreau is signed. Monahan is signed. You know in a couple of years they’ve going to have to sign Tkachuk. Giordano is signed. Brodie is signed. I think the biggest question is if they’re going to deal with goaltending after the season, does that leave them room to do Matt Duchene.”
