Now we are down to degrading trade suggestions by suggesting they could only happen through magic instead of supply and demand or mutual benefit or any other logical concept.
Bleh.

I get what you're saying but your trade proposals are pretty far out there in terms of likelihood and benefit to the trading partner. They're very Flames centric and get us star players with not nearly enough given up on our end. Fun to think about and dream about what our team would be like in those scenarios, but the vast majority of trades in the NHL have the fans saying "Oh geez, I really didn't want to give that player up/that much draft capital but I'm still excited about acquiring that player". General rule is if the home fan base goes "Yeah, that'd be great for us, let's do it!!!" then it's not close to realistic.
But I'm also not your target audience, either, so don't worry about me. I want to see what could possibly work, but dreaming big and having fun with what the team would look like is also fun on a message board, too. I'm just old and busy these days, so don't worry about me, lol.
