Eichel is having an off year but is a legitimate #1 forward.
But even then Calgary should definitely pull a deal of Tkachuk + Monahan + 1st + any prospect on the table that Buffalo wants. Even then I don't know what Buffalo would say but whatever it takes in my opinion.

I agree that the Flames have no chance in getting Eichel for Tkachuk and Monahan. Can't see it getting done for just those 2. The plus going back with Tkachuk needs to be a long term asset for Buffalo that nobody on here wants to give up. I think it is more likely to get done if guys like Mangiapane or Dube are added to Tkachuk as well as this years first
Tkachuk, Dube #1 Calgary 21
for
Eichel
Buffalo should consider something like this as they have a good young team and adding 2 top 10 picks this year with Dube gives them some insurance long term. I do think other teams probably out bid this and it may take a lottery win to get this deal done. But if that pick is first overall I'm not sure the Flames should do it.
If the Flames win first overall pick does anyone think this type of deal is possible?
#1 Calgary 21 and Lucic
For
#1 Detroit 21 (assuming they don't win the lottery and get 2nd pick)
Also candidates could be SJ, LA, OTT. A team picking around 6th to 8th overall. I personally think the Flames needs 1 of the players slotted their just as much but wonder if some of these teams would be excited to land Powers and be willing to take Lucic to get first overall pick.
