Johnny (50%) for Morgan Frost, Bobby Brink, 2020 1st and Travis Sanheim.

Honestly, their cap problems are their own problem. There is no reason for the Flames to have to take bad salary back in a Gaudreau trade or to retain. The Flames need all the cap space they can spare to ice a better team, especially when they are already wasting a bunch on Lucic and a couple buy out hits. If they want Gaudreau IMO, they can pay what he's worth, take his whole salary and clear salary some other way. Just my opinion, I want nothing to do with any of their 30+ year old players that have $7 million + AAV contracts for multiple years remaining.

I want a good young potential #1C so bad I'm almost like yeah, just put Frost and Patrick together in a return package and call it a day. Gamble, gamble, gamble.
