I don't like the value on the Frolik trade. The rights to a goalie who lost his starting job and a 6th are not worth it for the Flames who are going for a long playoff run next year. The trade also doesn't save any cap space as you turn around and give Varlamov a long term deal well above his market rate if you see Frolik as a cap dump. If we are moving Frolik for a platoon goalie and a pick, we could send him to Florida for Reimer and as high as a second rounder given Frolik's performance at the WC's and Reimer's shaky play last year.
I also don't like the idea of sending a guy that is a pain in the butt to play against to a division rival. If we are looking to move him for a third line forward and a pick, I think the Jets are a better trade partner as they could lose both Myers and Trouba this off season and have a number of good young players that could fit the third line spot you have Virtanen in (Roslovic, Appleton).
