I think that is well understood. I would prefer they trade both. But i'm aware of and appreciate the complexities in finding a fit.
And when we hear "The Flames aren't willing to retain" that may mean at all for Kadri, because they don't want to tie up a retention spot for 3 more years, or it may mean they aren't willing to retain for the prices being offered.

The real question is can they trade them both, with only 1 retention spot. And if not, which one do they choose to trade.

If they don't trade either I will be disappointed.
