Depends on the prospect we would have to add and or if we would be willing to take a bad contract off their hands like Phaneuf (at a retained amount around 15%)

Something like

Brodie
Bennett
Stajan (to make the cap work)
Gillies

for

Stone
Phaneuf (15% retained)
2nd round pick

To me the value is damn near even on this and it gets the Flames that top RW to help push that top line over the top and spread scoring through out the top 6.

Gaudreau - Monahan - Stone
Tkachuk - Backlund - Ferland

That top 6 is lethal no doubt.

Phaneuf at 5.95 per year is a little easier to stomach too than 7 mill per ~ and he is a lefty.
I really think after the Duchene debacle that the Sens will be doing everything they can to recoup some picks. Likely involves the 2019 first going their way
