To CBJ: Gaudreau, 2021 1st round pick
To CGY: Dubois
Columbus gets back a 1st, and the best player possible.
Calgary gets 5 years younger, and stronger at centre.
Columbus can later flip to Gaudreau if things don't work out.
I would pay that price.
Tkachuk - Lindholm - Dube
Bennett - Dubois - Mangiapane
Backlund - Monahan - Leivo
Lucic - Ryan - Simon
Nordstrom
Flames would also then have $2.7M in cap-space to accrue cap-space all season to acquire another forward towards the deadline (hello Taylor Hall).
Lindholm, Dubois, Monahan down the middle?
Expose Backlund and Tanev in expansion, spend money in the summer on improving wing depth if needed.
