Flames Friedman: Treliving looking to add a 1st for 2018 draft. Coyotes won't sign Hickey.

12. Word out of the GM meetings is Calgary GM Brad Treliving will look to add a first-round pick in this year’s draft. The Flames traded their 2018 selection to the Islanders in the Travis Hamonic deal, and will try to replace it. That would likely mean a major move, but the way this season is ending necessitates something big.
Also looks like Arizona won't sign Hickey:

15. Brandon Hickey, traded to Arizona as part of the Mike Smith deal, is playing for Boston University at the NCAA’s Northeast Regional this weekend. Sounds like the Coyotes will try and move him, not seeing a fit to sign. Hickey is finishing his senior season.

Would much rather see Brodie go for legitimate top 6 winger help than a draft pick.

Likely won’t be a lottery 1st. So acquire one and then talk to NYI about swapping it along with another pick or a prospect for our own lottery pick back.

I just said today I doubted this would happen, but I've been a wrong before a lot and will be wrong again.

Revised overly-optimistic off-season plan
- Trade Ferland+something for a first
- Trade Brodie+Sam for Galch+Gallagher
- Sign Hickey
- Other neat stuff

No need to tell me that's not realistic. I'm well aware of that.

Trade a defenseman for a 1st round pick and a couple of 2nds.

Sign Hickey as a free agent.

And now the circle is complete.

If he trades for a first, hope it is a 2019 pick so we can root against the team all year long and hope for a lottery pick.

Would kind of seem fair, don't you think?

I don't think its just a first he's after. Probably a bigger play for a player and a 1st. Will be a fun draft weekend. If not sooner.

I think it will be Bennett for a late 1st round pick.

This is not what I want to hear. In order to get a first, the Flames have to include one of Ferland, Bennett, Brodie, or Hamilton. The first 2 are too young to trade, Brodie deserves a second chance on the right side with a new coach, and Hamilton is too valuable.

I disagree. I think Ferland is a must-trade in the offseason. I am almost 100% confident that his value will never be higher.

Hope it's Hamonic. Just press the undo button and move Brodie back to the right on a pair with Kulak.

Agree. People can say all they want that Smith was our mvp but i think Gio was our MVP this year. He doesn’t have allot of mileage on him and expect him to continue to earn his contract. Smith take out the last couple weeks was a awesome addition and top 3 player this year.
