Mark Stone (Assume we also sign him to an extension at the end of this year, possibly $6 mill x 7 years since he's RFA)

To Ottawa:

TJ Brodie
2019 1st Round Pick
2020 2nd Round Pick
2018 3rd Round Pick
2018 4th Round Pick (Our's or Florida's)
D Prospect (Oliver Kylington)
F Prospect (Emile Poirier)

Fair or no? If no, replace 2018 3rd Round Pick with a 2020 1st Round Pick OR Sam Bennett but then we have a glaring hole on 3rd line LW. I'm not a huge fan of Bennett but I'd rather keep him now and ship him off later lol.

Basically this trade is killing two birds with one stone. With this trade we get our top 6 RW, who can slot in on the 1st line when Ferland struggles, bumping him down to the 3rd and Frolik back up to 2nd, so we have a lot more flexibility on the right side. And Erik Freakin Karlsson, does anything even need to be said about this guy? Imagine his stretch passes to Johnny, ohhh myyy.

Gaudreau - Monahan - Ferland
Tkachuk - Backlund - Stone
Bennett - Jankowski - Frolik
Mangiapane - Lazar - Hathaway

Giordano - Karlsson
Hamonic - Hamilton
Kulak - Stone

Smith
Rittich

They have more players making 5+ million a year than the Flames do.
