I think both DAL and TBL are the front runners for Coleman.
AVS and MTL keeping close tabs on Kadri.
I’d be happy if we saw:

50% retained Coleman for Hemming, 2nd

0% retained Kadri for Laine, Xhekaj, ‘26 1st, Flames extend Laine 1 year.

Laine re-establishes himself in Flames colours, giving us either a long term piece or another 1st next year…righting the balance of the Monahan shenanigans.

Like if I'm a Wild fan I'm not sure I'm happy they spent a 2nd on a 4th line C before addressing their top 9 center situation.
Guerin is going to spend a lot more on that top 9 centre. He's going for it.

Love that he's establishing high-bar prices for these guys.

Kadri to Colorado for a 2027 1st and B prospect
Coleman to Montreal for Arber and a 3rd

That feels average but probably what can be expected. Probably could expect something similar from Tampa for Coleman (perhaps O’Reilly + 2026 2nd). Comes down to who the Flames see as the better player between O’Reilly and Hemming.

Wonder if Calgary added a pick and Hanley would they be able to pry Kapanen from MTL along with Xhekaj. Hanley is relatively solid defensively and Xhekaj can have his moments. Laine is washed, there isn’t anything left there, no one is taking his full cap without getting something attached. Hanley would be a nice place holder for them until Reinbacher makes the jump.

MacKinnon
Nelson
Kadri


Would make probably the toughest center depth in the playoffs.

Gonna need to retain for Kadri to go to Colorado. My idea was Kadri 50% retained for 2027 1st, one of the 2027 2nds and Maximillian Curran

For 50% that is not nearly enough.

As long as they trade Coleman and Kadri before the deadline and can get a combined return of a 1st + 2nd + 3rd + B-level prospect (eg Hemming) then I’ll be happy with thw trade. Anything beyond that would be gravy.

I think it was rumored yesterday that Ross Colton would come to CGY in a Kadri deal alleviating over 50 percent of Kadris cap hit.

Colton
26 1st
Gulyayev

For Kadri

That's what I'd probably go after. Unless they moved in Brindley to the offer with Colton.

Still think the retention number on Kadri will be $2M.

$6M cost to the Flames and a $5M cap hit feels more palatable than 50%.

But with that much retention I'd want the equivalent of 2 1st round picks back, considering that's what Nelson got with less retention in return.

Colorado doesn’t have a 2026 1st, assume you meant 2027.

Colton, 2027 1st, Brindley would be a decent return.
