If its a conditional pick for Brodie going UFA it should be much lower than a second. I see Brodie and Saad as almost equal in value. At worst a #3D (likely a lot of teams second best defense man) for a top 6 winger. Maybe remove the condition and just add a mid-late round pick to sweeten the deal from Chicago's perspective. I do like the idea of using Brodie for an upgrade in the top 6 though.
Why trade Jankowski when he's finally arrived as an NHL bottom 6 player for a pick who only has a small chance of making an impact during the team's window of contending? If its to get under the cap, you may as well move Czarnik who doesn't kill penalties nearly as well as Janko did last year.
Sucks to lose Bennett + Frolik, but I think Zucker would be a good fit in Calgary as the #5/6F with along with Saad. Your moves also make the keeper forwards for expansion more well defined.
