It's easy to say "The Flames should trade Rasmus now". Ok. For what? What's the ROI you are expecting to get now such that making that deal makes sense.

You're convoluting two issues here.
One issue is: what is the minimum return we should accept, in order to trade Andersson (at any time). For example, if we can only get a 1st, then let's re-sign him.
The other issue, the one I am debating, is: does it make sense to trade him earlier vs later? There is an inherent assumption that the 1st hurdle has already been passed, or we wouldn't trade him at all. So the only question here is: what is the difference in returns? We don't know, but I suspect it's small. The only way to find out though, is for Conroy to see what he can get for him, which he seems reluctant to do.
