If Domi is the best asset coming back, that's a loser of a deal. Especially if you're only getting lottery tickets to go with it. You're likely getting players that are three to five years away from contributing at a high level, if they develop. Doesn't help this team that has an opportunity window right now. Frankly, Montreal is a terrible trading partner. They have very little they would move that the Flames need. I would look elsewhere, especially since you are unlikely to get the max value out of Gaudreau as the chance of him signing in Montreal once this contract us up seems pretty miniscule. And Domi at $5.5M? No thanks.
