If the Flames truly are in on some of the big fish, and the first rounder is in play, I find it hard to imagine a scenario where they get the player and don't overpay.
That first rounder is likely bottom 5 maybe even bottom 2. If that is the feature piece in a deal, how do you sweeten the pot with other assets? When potentially the teams you are bidding against have higher first round picks? Add the 3rd this year? The 2nd next year?
I love me some trade deadline hype, but im scared about the price.
