What kind of deals would be out there for him? Does something like Simmonds/Gudas from Philly make sense? Or Vorachek?
Tkachuk Monahan Vorachek looks pretty good...

No. None of that makes sense.
The flames made a ton of progress last year and are trying to build a contending team through strong drafting and development. You can tinker with the supporting cast all day, but there is absolutely no reason to trade a core piece and our best offensive player one year into his new long term contract.
Not to mention Voracek comes with an 8.25 million dollar cap hit until 2024 and has shown to be quite inconsistent year over year. Gaudreau had the same amount of points as him last year in 10 less games. And there's the age difference.
