I don’t believe for a second the return is as low as Blaster is speculating. I think the Canucks would have to give up the 15th pick to get the deal done.

If the Flames see Rossi as a C I am not sure I see the fit with Kadri, Frost, Backlund? Would Frost be signed to a short term deal? If Frost and Rossi get term why would Bscklund want to return after next season unless the team is looking like contenders (hard to see)


What about Frost being part of the deal? Frost+32nd pick for Rossi?

I think Frost is going to sign a short term show me deal, which inevitably walks him to FA.
He hasn't really shown anything to be worth committing to past a couple years, unless it's extremely cheap, which wouldn't be smart from his camp.

Unless he has a breakout year next season, I don't think he's long term with the Flames.

He was a relatively cheap acquisition, so it's a fine gamble and a useful stopgap.


I don't think Frost holds a ton of value, maybe a 2nd? I can't see 32nd oa + Frost being enticing, but maybe the entire league is as low on him as some here think.

If that's what it took, I would definitely do it.
