I wouldn't give up a young roster player like Lundell for Hanifin due to the cap implications (Hanifin will get paid vs. ELC contract). And I'm not saying that because it's the Panthers, I don't think any other team would do that either.

If it's the picks and prospects route, I think the Flames end up getting a mid-late first rounder and prospect(s) that are less proven than Lundell.
My point is more that I just don't think they are a match.

Lundell is the only piece that would have equivalent value to the going rate for deals like this tends to be a 1st and 2 2nds. Lundell is the only piece that would fit since Florida has no picks or other prospects of real value.

Also based on most of the past season and Panthers fans have chatted about Duclair then I would have said he's more of a salary dump than a piece with value.

I just don't see a deal to be made here with Florida since they don't have the assets.
