Going for the Gusto

Carolina already has a logjam of defensemen, don't need Valimaki, but the value is fair. Just the wrong team.

they will take every FIN they can But ya whoever wants him.

Too much for Gudbranson on a multi year deal. Give him like 1.2M x 3y
Overpay for Laughton.
Flames should keep Valimaki
Jarnkrok probably walks as Pelletier will be making the team next year
Lucic won't cost a 1st to dump (refer to Stralman)

Gudbrasson proving he’s worth what’s he’s getting. Don’t see why he would take much less than what he makes now.
With the Jarnkrok ties I highly doubt he leaves.
Can for keep Valimaki, not really necessary just thought they should might want to draft someone this draft.
If I can keep one of the second round picks in the Laughton deal I would use that to shed Lucic. Monahans value is basically nothing, minus to some, if he needs like a year off to get healthy that may be the best thing for CGY, just toss him on LTIR next year. But trading him for a healthy body doesn’t sound cheap to me. Especially the fact he’s a UFA after next year.

Gudbranson has been on 6 teams in the last 4 years, i'm willing to bet he would take a team friendly deal to not have to pack up, sell his house, and move his family again
Jarkrok has some ties but is too expensive, Nordstrom also had ties but he didn't come back
Valimaki still has pretty high potential, no reason to sell him for dirt cheap.
It's reported that there is a lot of interest in Monahan, I doubt Calgary needs to pay to move him this summer, they probably just don't get a major return. Likely a rec project and a mid pick (ie Steel, Velano, Mittelstadt, Bemstrom, etc)
