Kylington if we also obtained value in return
2nd round pick if we also obtained value in return (say a 3rd round pick).

Aside from Kulak there is very little in that list which is likely to play meaningful games for the Flames in the next 3 years. Brouwer's contract and negative on ice influence on his linemmates need to be removed from the team as soon as possible.
I think that there is a better than 2/3 chance that Kylington plays meaningful games for the Flames in the next 3 years. Maybe a lot of meaningful games (and meaningful contributions). Trading him to get rid of Brouwer would be terrible asset management IMO.
