And Weegar is already signed long term at a good price, and seems more desiring to stay. So that brings us back to needing to move Andersson.

Normally I wouldn't agree as most top teams have a true #1 and a true #3 for pairings but the Flames aren't ready to challenge for a couple of years and with some of the defensive prospects in the pipeline I think you roll the dice if you can improve the center position. But the return has to be really really good to trade Andersson.
