I really think the Flames did well with the trade. Especially since Andersson is technically just a rental.
Out of thanks, but I agree very strongly.

I think it’s likely that the Flames will keep Whitecloud and trade another veteran D. Pachal would be my first guess, if they find a buyer at any decent price. Hanley is also possible; Weegar if they get an offer they can’t refuse.

I said in another post that Whitecloud was a throw-in, but I meant that from the standpoint of roster and cap numbers to make the deal possible. He’s miles better than the typical cap dump.
