I would have a tough time picking between them, going to the finals doesn't change his value IMO. Flames won more games in a debacle season, they were pretty fortunate to be a playoff team and likely won't even be close this year.
He's a Centre, which is a significant tie-breaker if you want to say two players are close.

He lead the Habs forwards in TOI int he regular season, and tied for the lead with Danault in the playoffs.

Being the most played player who scored the most goals and most points on a team that went to the finals is significant.

While I don't love the AAV, I think this is the better route for the Habs than doing a bridge (which don't typically happen until the off-season, when he would presumably be vulnerable to another offer-sheet from the Canes).
