So trade Tkachuk for him and make that the new top pairing for the Flames? Reunite Brodie-Giordano. I like your thinking Roof-Daddy.

I don't think anyone is claiming that Hamilton would not be an upgrade for the Leafs (if it cost them nothing). The bigger point is that, if they were to move one of the 'big' fowards, they already have Rielly in Hamilton's role and have bigger holes to fill defensively. Which is reasonable, but I disagree with myself. Still people got their panties in a bunch with the Rielly and Hamilton comparison as though that's not the most obvious comparisons between the Flames and Leafs.
