This seems to make a lot of sense. Both the leafs and the Flames were good bets to make the playoffs. JVR headed into the final year of his deal seems to be worth 2 2nd rounds picks, maybe a little more which may have meant if the Flames wanted the deal to get done, there could be no limitations on the 1st.
If the Flames put any of their players on the market, it's Treliving's, and his support staff, job to find the best offer for the Flames.

What is close to 1st+JVR now?
Hamonic for 1st+Simmonds --- Personally, I think Philly would never do this. However, both players score similar number of points and Simmonds is also coming up to one more year left on his contract. It just goes to show how every GM in the league thinks differently and there is no way to figure out the actual value of a player.
