This is one of the scenarios where you put the 2 and 2 together. Just no way Treliving was in on a trade this big for a rental, he hates rentals.

Right. Which is precisely why it did not happen. There was lots of discussion at the time about tagging room, and the longer-term cap implications with Tkachuk coming up as a RFA. Trading for Stone was theoretically possible, but at a cost that I think most would agree that the Flames could not afford at the time.
