Maybe something bigger ?
Brodie + Bennett + Jankowski
For
Hopkins + Puljujarvi + Kassian (balances toughness lost from dealing Bennett)
Deal Frolik for picks
Gaudreau - Monahan - Lindholm
Tkachuk - Hopkins - Neal
Mangiapane - Backlund - Puljujarvi
Dube - Ryan - Kassian
Giordano - Andersson
Hanifin - Hamonic
Valimaki - Stone
Kylington - Yelesin

I think the Flames would likely be targeting RNH since he would fit the #2C role, which the Flames were targeting with Kadri. I think the Flames would need to trade Brodie and Bennett.
Personally, I think it would just be RNH and JP for Brodie and Bennett. The Flames would then have to trade Frolik for picks and buyout Stone. They would then sign a RHD for 1 year and 700 K.
Gaudreau - Monahan - Lindholm
Tkachuk - RNH - Puljujarvi
Mangiapane - Backlund - Neal
Jankowski - Ryan - Dube
LW - Quine - Czarnik
Giordano - Andersson
Hanifin - Hamonic
Valimaki - Petrovic
Kylington/Davidson
Rittich
Talbot
