If the tables were turned and Kadri was entering the last year of his deal and Brodie had 3 years left on his that trade would have looked terrible for the Flames.

Supply & demand. The first shoe to drop is Gardiner. Once he signs the Flames will have to find a partner who has the need & cap space for Brodie. Bare in mind similar quality defence men such as Nick Leddy, Shayne Gostisbhere & Jarred Spurgeon are also rumoured names that have been out there.
At this point, I would have to think it's a buyers market. If the Flames could get two 2nd's, I would be all over that.
