True but would you bet on a player that is 25 with a career high of 25pts or a 26 year old who has a career low of 41pts?
I know the Flames are adding multiple top prospects in the hypothetical deal which balances it out (in my eyes, others think it is a low ball offer and others that don't want to give up our players/prospects).
The deal I mentioned would look like a clear win for Calgary day 1. If Gillies becomes a legit starting goalie, and Fox becomes a top 4 offensive Dman, and Ferland becomes a 40-50pt 20 goal winger the deal likely works out for the Avs. The Flames basically would have to win in the next 2 years because they would not be able to keep Duchene, Tkachuk, Bennett in the same summer
