I suspect if we see Pelletier, Coronato, Wolf, Zary in a deal the Flames are getting a long term piece.

Pieces I would have interest in moving some high end prospects for:

Konecny
Dvorak
Gourde
Laine
Debrincat
Chychrun

I am sure there are more but I want a longer term piece of the prime assets are going out the door. Where it gets really messy is trying to make the cap work after this season
I like this list, particularly Konecny, Gourde, Chychrun. Reuniting Gourde and Coleman could payoff big. Flames were rumored to have had interest in Konecny at the 2015 draft, so it seems to reason that they like the player.

When it comes to Chychrun, I wonder if the Flames can do this with Hanifin being part of the return. He's still young, locked in for two more years after this one and can likely be flipped for an attractive futures based offer elsewhere if that is their preference. Would Hanifin, Zary, 1st get it done? Too much? Also acknowledging Friedman did pour cold water on the Flames interest in Chychrun/dealing picks prospects. Food for thought, though.
