People who don't like Brodie's occasional turnovers are missing the forest for the trees.

Disagree. Brodie I think will be moved because he's a pending UFA along with Hamonic, there is a salary cap and the Flames have three excellent D prospects. While Rasmus Andersson is still a raw prospect it's not unheard of for a good quality young player to play on the top pairing along with the star. Chara for example is famous for having various rookie partners. My knowledge doesn't go back very far but loads was made of Hamilton playing with Chara to start his career, now he's carrying another young player in Charlie McAvoy.
I understand you're not a big believer in Rasmus (I am) but Timothy Liljegren is an odd suggestion for the type of player the Flames couldn't resist adding to the top pair. The guy was down in the ECHL just a month ago for a game. He might be a star but right now he's rawer then Kylington.
Trouba's an interesting suggestion, he'll get a massive raise however and I can't see how that deal happens. Hell Winnipeg might be a team to move Brodie to but considering Myers is a UFA they don't want to be swapping D around too much.
My thoughts
