To Calgary: 15th overall
That’s honestly probably an over-pay by Calgary. That’s a 30-goal scorer with grit and leadership who has won two cups, a first round pick + a young center/wing with speed, physicality and grit. This trade effectively makes the flames one of, if not the softest teams in the league and would be a tough pill to swallow unless a really good player was available at 15th overall.

That's a big overpay by Calgary.
50% retention on Coleman and Pospisil is worth a lot more than moving up 12 picks.
Coleman ($2.45M @ 50% retained) for 15th Overall is pretty close to fair value on it's own, no need to add the other pieces. Retaining the 50% is worth about 25th OV on it's own according to puckpedia cap value.
