There’s no way Bischel is available with 2 years left on his ELC. That’s extremely valuable for Dallas. I even find it hard for Bourque to be available too.
I think Dallas will try and get another team to retain 50% of Andersson.
My guess:
To 3rd party team: 2028 4th for 50% R. Andersson ($1,137,500) used
To CGY: 2027 1st, Bertucci, 2026 7th (DAL) —> 50% retention, $2,275,000 x 1
To DAL: Andersson (75% retention: $1,137,500 x 1)
People will say that’s too little, I say it’s what we will get for a non-extended Andersson.
Thought about Lybushkin going the other way and Coleman coming back, but I doubt the Flames use all retention spots for one season. Probably want to save one down the road, and a Coleman deal likely went out the window once Faksa was signed to a 2m deal in Dallas. This gives Dallas one more roster spot to fill at 775-800k, in which they likely just use as a spot the minor leaguers can fight over.
