Scoring Depth Improvement

You're not giving up that number of assets to play Gallagher on the 3rd line.

Only problem is that if (big assumption, I know) Karlsson isn't traded then there's no room for Stone on the right side. Has he ever played LD? Otherwise I'd do that trade for Ottawa and I'd double do it if Karlsson is gone.

I forgot to add in a description to explain what I was thinking. Third line gets extra minutes, fourth line gets fewer, plus Gallagher gets power play time. He should be able to get as many minutes on CGY as he did in MTL

id rather keep the three young players you traded away who would combine for more points than Gallagher would and all of them have potential to reach ceilings of gallaghers level. Lazar isn't capable of being an NHL centerman.

the flames are in a win now situation but that doesn't mean throw away the entire future to try and do that

This is true, but Jankowski is projected as CGY’s 4C and the prospects are hard pressed to make the team or rot in the AHL. Kylington is expendable because of Hanifin, Valimaki, and Anderson, and Dube will be better than Mangiapane. That’s all I’m thinking anyways.
