I don't think so. I see 19 as similar to Glencross, and he'll get a return of similar value. 2nd + 4th/5th.
You may be right on the price. However, if you see Jones similar to Glencross, why do you want him back when Glencross couldn't crack a single line-up in the league the year after he got traded. Just doesn't make sense to me.

Hmm...ambivalent about this. Hiller helps us get a better draft pick. But Ortio deserves a chance to play.

Hey, maybe Ortio will be worse than Hiller yet again and we can have both!

Being old blows.
Try being an East Coast Flames fan.. Its poor.

He's totally going to be traded. Can't see a scenario where it doesn't happen.

maybe they're making a trade and getting Murray from the pens and want to give Ortio a game to really prove himself.

With the way David Jones is playing this year, being in a contract year an all, I'd be very surprised if he gets much more than a 1 year, ~$1M contract as his next one.

Actually, I wouldn't even be shocked if he has to accept a PTO or doesn't even get another NHL contract next year.

So they aren't going to bother calling anyone up to fill Granlund's spot?

It is a 5 hour drive between Stockton and LA according to Google Maps.

Having two extra forwards isn't really necessary. This way Russell can be activated off IR without making any moves.
