If the Leafs offered Nylander and their 1st (~25thOA) for Dougie I could see Trelivng looking at that. Toronto may decide to keep JVR or sign Kvalchuk and could make the 22 year old RFA available for an upgrade on the blue line.
Flames get a highly skilled right shot forward which is a huge need for the Flames. They could lock him up to a similar cap hit as Dougie with a 6 year term opposed to the 3 left on Hamiltons deal. The Flames also recoup a pick in the first round which is rumoured to be something they are looking to do.
I honestly see Hamitlon as the only player that we could move on the blue line that would come close to adding the type of forward and draft pick the team wants.
