I think the defensive prospects the Flames have make it worth the risk to shed some defensive talent.

I definitely think our defense strategy is flawed. But they really shouldn't be moving any of the top three until this coach is gone.
Gio, Tkachuk, Monahan, Gaudreau: as untouchable as it gets
Bennett, Brodie, Hamilton: Moving based on the time under this coach is a massive mistake.
Get the low hanging fruit first and then start addressing the team construction strategy.
