It might work but I think the offer sheet route for Bourque and giving them a 2nd in compensation is better value. Coleman with 2 years of full retention should be worth more than a 2nd.

I wonder about the Red Wings, Rangers, or CBJs as teams who missed the playoffs this year but may think of themselves as playoff contention teams. Sending them Coleman and Andersson could help them now and each of them have C prospects that might be what the Flames are looking for.
