this is the most ridiculous thing I have read.
So the new rumor swirling around is the Flames having interest in inquiring Gardiner. My question is what kind of return would you be looking for from that organization. The only roster player that I assume may be a moveable asset for the flames that I'd be interested in is Glencross. 2.5 Mil for another season after this is really good value for a guy that can play up and down on the depth chart. Of course you'd have a logjam on the wing so this is what I propose. Glencross + 2nd for Gardiner, Kulemin, and Liles. Before you freak out, hear me out. Nobody is interested in JML's contract unless you're taking another bad contract back which is a bit redundant so you sweeten the pot by sending the flames two real good players still approaching their prime years and you get back a good replacement for Kulie and lots of cap flexibility going forward. Thoughts?

There is no way in hell the leafs are going to move Gardiner just to dump JML. There's no interest in Glencross, even if it were Glencross+ for Gardiner or even Glencross for Kulie.

Kadri fits this team so well. Love his swagger. Brayden won't like it here either after the way we treated Luke.
How did we treat Luke?
Seems he got plenty of ice time
The Calgary Flames have traded forward Tim Jackman to the Anaheim Ducks for a 6th round pick. - tsn
I don't think it is. Im sure being a member of HF, that you've read dumber. Heck, most of my trade proposals are dumber than what he said.
That being said, I disagree with that fellows post. Kadri used to have a poor attitude and was immature. I really like the progress he has made and I attribute that directly to Dion Phaneuf. He is the captain and it is very clear in their daily interviews on TML.com that Phaneuf has helped coach him in the way he handles questions in the media.
I want Calgary's 1st, Giordano, or Monahan for Gardiner. Nothing else fits our needs. All of those are unrealistic.
Gardiner for Cammeleri ... ? he's a center i believe...

I would maybe do Clarkson for Cammy, please do Clarkson for Cammy, please, or Bozak.
Sorry mate, wrong way to look at it.
Calg is the motivated seller here, we don't need to lose Liles cap hit this season and next year if a buy out happens his hit is only 800k next year.
To facilitate a trade they would have to take Liles just to make it possible, no sweetner is needed.
Now to the actual trade parts, I would not even trade Kuli strait up for Glenncross.
Liles for Glen, ya sure i'd think about it.
Right now i think DN is ok having Liles in the system as PO D depth.
Yeah I'm convinced you've never seen Glencross play. Calgary doesn't answer a Toronto phone call for a year if the Leafs offered Liles for him. And without a doubt they still say no to Kulemin for Glencross.
He's very underrated. He's a top 6 power forward winger getting paid 2.5 million dollars. That's not something you come across a lot. Feaster went so far as to say that he was untouchable last year.
Glencross would not come cheap. Not that we need him (with our wings, it makes little sense), but if we wanted him, it would be for a heavy price.
So... everything Clarkson is supposed to bring for 3 million less?
