Teams at the deadline tend to trade for current assets, giving up future assets.
Assuming the Flames are in a playoff spot, why would a well producing Johnny be traded?
And what contending team would give up a current asset for Johnny?
If GM’s are desperate at the trade deadline, wouldn’t that also describe ours?
