I think if you consider the rationale Booby Mac is suggesting, that the flames are looking to move Brodie/Hamonic for cap considerations due to Tkachuk, it intimates Calgary's motivation for each player.
If your consideration is maximizing cap space for tkachuk than Brodie is the obvious odd man out as it compares to hamonic because of Brodie's cap hit and limited term.
Brodie for a draft pick or two is certainly a deal that is out there.
However, if you're looking to shed cap from your back end while also improving your roster, you move Hamonic for a (much) more substantial return.
At this point I would consider hamonic almost twice as valuable as Brodie, especially to a contender.
With Winnipeg potentially losing Myers and trouba I wonder if there is a deal to be done there for Hamonic.
Hamonic for Lowry +?
