Andersson
Coleman (50% - just 2 years left on his deal - more attractive than 1 year on Andersson from Pittsburgh's view)
Maybe that's a bit light for the 12th pick, but maybe the right amount for the 26th pick. I would hate to trade Coleman away, but you have to give to get. Flames need to make some room on the wings as well.
If it does end up being the 12th pick, Flames can then add Florida's pick and maybe move up to 8th? 6th maybe?? Maybe the 18th pick will get them to 6th? Hard to say.
This may all be moot, because if I am Dubas, whether I have Crosby or not is irrelevant - I am not trading any more futures as this team needs to draft and develop a young core. San Jose did so with some vets. LA did it. Washington is doing that. However, maybe the push to try and get into the playoffs is too much to resist.

Disagree. Coleman alone, retained for 2 years, is worth the 26th pick (which in a weak draft is probably worth an early 2nd in a good draft.
Andersson PLUS Coleman, for the 26th is insane. Even for the 12th I don't like it.
