With the Markstrom trade complete and hearing Conroy on Barnburner there is no doubting the direction of this team is a rebuild. While this blueline is already short legit top 4 talent Andersson represents the teams best trade chip due to his age, contract, right shot and ability to play top pair minutes.
I have a feeling the Flames will not be shopping him or entertaining moving him at the draft but I believe he should be on the table and with as much as 50% retention to maximize the value. The Flames could target Lundell, Perfetti, Zegras or other young forwards who could be on the move.
