I'd say that it hugely favors Columbus, and Calgary doesn't even have room for Savard

Calgary needs a gaudreau and gaudreau needs a change of scenery, so tough to pull off a trade, something similar to the laine situation in wpg without the team control. Calgary would need a potential replacement offensive forward with potential, not sure of the blueline need.

That’s not enough for Gaudreau, and he still walks in 2 years.

Switch Robinson for Texier or Bremstrom and a 2nd for a 1st and they’d consider it. (Look at the Duchane trade as a good compatible then add a little for the extra year).

I think that's a cool trade and good for both sides. Reunites the Robinson brothers and Savard at a retained salary frees up some cap space room for a future trade at the deadline. Just wish the 2nd was a 1st. Put Tkachuk up with Monahan and LIndholm and see if Eric and Buddy can line up with Ryan to make a solid 4 line combo?
