If they want established NHL players who are in the right age range etc then the counter-parties are going to be relatively limited, Flames will get blown away on pure futures packages for sure.
Also, I get Tkachuk is having a down season but calling not very good is selling him way short, Monahan is more arguable but I feel like some people on here would dump him for a third or something.
All fantasy talk though, chances are Eichel stays there and Buffalo tries to re-tool by trading Reinhart, Risto, etc.

Yeah, I feel like with how this season has played out, a lot of people have swung to undervaluing Flames players and overvaluing just about everyone else.
