Going to throw out a proposal and see what people think.
The Hamilton brothers and Brouwer
For
Duchene and Barrie
The Flames give the best player in the deal up in Hamilton but still remain strong on the right side with Hamonic, Stone and Barrie. They add Duchene to play with Monahan and Gaudreau and hope he bounces back. The Avs take Brouwer for cap purposes (NTC is likely an issue). Might be far too risky to trade Dougie considering he keeps getting better every season

Absolutely not.
Any deal that sees us moving Dougie is a huge step backwards. Just no...Giordano won't be around forever and Dougie is the future of our defence.
Barrie is a tire fire in his own end. He's also very undersized. He's a d-man on the level of Kris Russell and adds very little to the value of the deal.
If we make this deal, a declining Duchene walks away in 2 years. We trade away our future #1 d-man.
