Interesting point of view. I agree that the cost for Duchene is likely comparable to Brodie.
However, after watching Kulak and Bartowski play together I doubt that the Flames management is comfortable with that bottom pairing. Also, the Flames are not quite in win now mode. Next year would be a more convenient year to move defensive prospects into player positions or to other teams.
For now I am happy for the Flames to stay pat. I don't think that scoring is such a large concern and the Flames wont make this move just cause they can .
