This has all the hall marks of a Flames trade.
"Top" D-man that's never really shown to be that good (Bouwmeester, Hamilton, Hamonic).
"Great goalie" that has maybe a season worth of top tier play after being fairly average (Mike Smith, Elliott).
A great forward that's languished on bad teams (Jokinen, Langkow, Cammellari)
Giving up a #### tonne of picks (All those trades)
I think this would be a colossal mistake. Take a run at one of the many goalies that are in UFA or wait to see if a team grabs a goalie and make theirs expendable. There's a chance there will be a good goalie available for cheap by November.
