I think that all of Flames fandom is on board with Janko needing a fresh start somewhere. He is the perfect player to go the other way in an Anderson trade. Only a small sweetener needed.
Bennett should be the third line centre. Hartley had him on a strong development curve, and then GG, Peters and now Ward have him buried in the wrong position on an offensive black hole line. I expect Gallant will have him on the right line, in the right position, simply because he is a smarter coach. I know that we will agree to disagree on this. If he plays on a line with Anderson and Dube, even if they trade him the next off season, his value will increase exponentially.
Lucic is here for the duration unless there is a compliance buyout. Lucic-Ryan-Phillips third or fourth line (I see them as interchangeable) should wear out the opposition.

If Bennett is the 3rd line C that will mean we didn't get an upgrade at C and that will be extremely disappointing to me.
Also, Gallant?
Are you just trying to speak it into existence, or do have you heard something concrete?
Please tell me you've heard something concrete.
