Trading away our first + for Laf would be the stereo typical Flames move during a deep draft year with a team who's chances of making the playoffs are still not that great let alone go deep for a run.
Unlike Bennett Laf has been giving extended looks on the top lines in NY and hasnt been able to do anything with it. PP time/big minutes you name it and the guy just hasn't looked good.
Would I take a flyer on him? Sure, why not.
But I wouldn't trade a 1st nor Dube straight up at this point.
With that said, I dont see Calgary coming close on this.
You've got the Chicago rumors as well as Vancouver who both are blowing up their teams before the Flames do.
