Meltdown aside, what would it realistically cost for the Oilers to acquire Jankowski?

Philly trade is horrible for Calgary. You have to get at least 2 of Myers, Patrick, Konecny, Frost back in those trades.

realistically if the flames were to trade gaudreau, what would they want in return. Would they be going for a retool? rebuild?

What's going on in Calgary?

Gaudreau to Edmonton. What's the ask?

jets and flyers say yes in like 2 secs

Here is a simple step-by-step exercise if you are contemplating a trade that involves a goaltender going to the Blue Jackets.

1. Look at the 2019-2020 SV%s of Joonas Korpisalo and Elvis Merzlikins.
2. Look at the 2019-2020 SV% of the goaltender you are offering.
3. Look at the contract AAV and term of Korpisalo and Merzlikins. Add them together.
4. Look at the contract AAV and term of the goaltender you are offering.
5. Ask yourself: Is one or more of the following true?
- Goaltender SV% < Korpisalo/Merzlikins SV%
- Goaltender AAV/term > Korpisalo/Merzlikins combined AAV/term
IF NONE ARE TRUE: The Jackets might - might - be interested.
IF ONE IS TRUE: The Jackets are not interested. Don't bother posting.
IF BOTH ARE TRUE: The Jackets are definitely not interested. Don't bother posting.
IF BOTH ARE TRUE AND YOU WANT THE JACKETS TO PAY FOR THE PRIVILEGE: Hang your head in shame, go away, and never darken our door again.

Guess which of those four categories you're in?
