Perhaps I am simply wrong in this but I still feel like the Flames could get huge value out of a July 1st trade by using retention and an extension.
The extension would be the kicker to make it more than a full year rental. The receiving team would get Andersson for potentially 9 years, one at a discount and 8 at full value.
In my head, the sign and trade should be more valuable because of the degree of certainty it gives than trading him at this deadline with the risk that he walks to UFA at the end of next season.
Either way the value should be great.
