4) I think his value will only get lower after the deadline. Yes, the Flames could have more suitors in the off-season, but so will New Jersey.

Okey, I'm seeing this a little bit different. I don't necessarily think Calgary is in tank mode. They are still a competitive team, and they think they can win. That's not a bad environment to inject promising young players. I agree with the plan of selling of UFAs for futures, but they still have good players that want to win.
And I really don't agree of his apparent inconsistency. Last year, was an outlier. This years performs is more indicative of what he has done throughout his career.
