It is a terrible idea swapping 2 pending UFA’s for 2 others. Brodie is a massive downgrade on Hanifin and I don’t see an upgrade on the winger Nylander and the center Lindholm. Flames then extend Nylander to the 8x9.5 he wants and are stuck with $20M on the top 2 wingers for the next 7-8 years.
That is a fleecing by Toronto.
