Gaudreau - Monahan - Lindholm
Tkachuk - O'Reilly - XXXXX
...and never end up with Lucic.

I think we can tie that Hamonic deal being one of the reasons he couldn’t make that move. The Blues traded a 1st and 2nd as part of the deal to get O’Reilly so the Flames would of had to trade their second consecutive 1st and fourth consecutive 2nd to match the offer.
The Hamonic trade made it harder to trade those picks
