Is it because he's a workhorse that leads the Flames in TOI? Or is it because he's our leading scorer on defense? His value to the Flames, whether you like it or not, has to get you a top 6 guy or your team is going backwards.
Brodie is a top 4 defenseman on most teams. If that doesn't get you a top 6 guy in a trade, while dealing from a position of strength, then you've lost that trade.

Brodie has the worst plus minus on the team doesn’t he? He did last week I believe. Also his decision making with the puck is suspect. His positioning defensively has been suspect, and he has been the benefactor of being on the 1st unit PP with JG and Monny. Hence his assists.
Brodie has been terrible 5v5 by my eye this year.
I remember bringing up trading Brodie for Landeskog this summer and I got ripped apart and ridiculed on this board and it was completely unfounded. All I did was brought a different opinion..
Now.. we would be lucky to get Landeskog for Brodie IMO.
