He’s not chopped liver, but until he does something significant in the NHL, his value is fairly low. History is littered with PPG AHLers and 2nd round picks that never amounted to much.
I’ve got as much hope as the next guy for Dube, but he’s a long way off yet.

I would agree with you there.
Overall, I think that the level of player you’d have to give up is not worth it to the Flames, and the level of player you’d want to give up wouldn’t get it done. I don’t see a fit at all.
