Description
I offered a similar trade with different draft picks a couple weeks ago and the consensus was that it was a steal for Calgary. Hopefully this is better value.

I was also considering Kane for Andersson, Jon Gillies, and maybe a later pick. I thought Gillies may be expendable with Rittich playing well enough and Parsons looming in the distance, but I'm not sure if Flames fans want to lose him right now.

Thoughts?

Yes that's fair. Honestly if it's a sign and trade then Gillies can be included. Personally I worry Treliving will pay a high price for Kane then see him walk this offseason. I wouldn't call it a steal for CGY, Andersson is very good and IMO should be in the NHL right now, they just don't want to rush him

Thats a good return. Unfortunately calgary would then not have first or second round picks for 2 straight years i believe, that makes me think they turn it down because of that.

That really doesnt help the Sabres though, sure the D gets better a little but now they have 0 offense going into the next season with the only top LW prospect in the pros looking like hes a few years off. Theyre also stuck with a plethora of mediocre LHD

The return is a tad weak, may want another small asset or remove the 3rd rounder

I agree with this. I just don't understand why Calgary would think they have such a good chance to win that they'd seriously hinder their future further by moving another top pick. I don't believe that they are a top 5 playoff team with or without Kane, so being impatient and not thinking about the future is foolish.
