Dallas gives up a young player and a top line forward in the deal. They get Andersson 50% retained and get Coleman with double retention for 2 years which provides immense value for the team. Pospisil brings some of the agitation lost with Marchment out and he has shown some nice upside. They get a pick back in a draft where they do not have a 1st

Anaheim trades: McTavish, Zellweger (1 retention spot for Coleman)
Anaheim receives: Robertson, Bourque

Anaheim moves on from a RFA and brings in a new star player. Robertson would be the Ducks best forward and with Quenville the Ducks are looking to win sooner than later. Bourque is a center replacement

Calgary trades: Andersson, Coleman, Pospisil, VGK 1st (uses their 2 remaining retention slots)
Calgary receives: McTavish (signs for $9Mx8 years) Zellweger

Flames put a lot of chips in to grab the 2 pieces they need the most in a young center and left shot D. They are able to hold onto all their premium young assets but need to part with their 2nd 2026 1st. Pospisil is also a piece that has more upside. Flames would have a center, winger, Dman, and goalie all under 25 to build around. All of a sudden the retool is looking legit.

I had thought about taking Bourque and Pospisil out and adding Zary to the Ducks.
To each their own, but I just don't see what the point or enjoyment out of fanciful daydreaming out loud is.

This is neither a rumor or speculation. Why waste your time writing it up?
