This deal only makes sense if Pacioretty re-signs with Montreal and is then traded at 50% of his cap hit. Pacioretty for 4-5 years at <$4M would be worth that return, but not unless he's locked up.
As for the Calgary trade, there's is no way I see that return springing Bennett, let alone Valimaki too. Bennett is not panning out as a star worthy of the #3 pick, but he's a good player. Valimaki is the #16 prospect on the THN list. Can't see them parting with him.
