Missing out on Mark Stone also hopefully means they don't think too hard about dumping Michael Stone this offseason. They should be able to do that fairly easily considering what guys like Del Zotto and even Gudbranson went for

I agree. If the Flames were trying to trade Neal and a 1st round pick for Zucker, then the Flames should hope Neal heats up down the stretch and in the playoffs. I imagine Fenton would then be willing to revisit the deal given the value of 1st round picks at the draft. Getting rid of the Neal contract would be huge.
