The idea that the Flames should trade a top 25 dman in the league on a good contract for some magic beans because “rebuild” is ridiculous.

You’re confused. I didn’t say the Flames should trade Weegar. I don’t think they should, nor do I think Seattle would give that type of package up for Weegar. You’ve missed the point.
I asked why would Seattle trade Wright and a first, or a list of prospects which included Catton who was just selected one pick before what many are regarding our own top ranked prospect, for Weegar. It makes no sense for Seattle. That would be like saying the Flames should trade, say, a first round pick and a top prospect for a 30 year old center. No thanks. Nor does it sound like Conroy is interested in doing anything close to that.
I’ll go out on a limb and say it’s a trade that will never happen anyway. It wouldn’t make sense for either side.
