I think if you retain ~1.5 Million on Marner, then its a fair trade.

Let me try the retention and see what they say.

Guerin wants a top 6 C for Brodin, Wingers are't a position of need for the Wild they need Centers just like Detroit.

We'll keep Fiala who was close to the player Marner is towards the end of the season (scored 26 points and 14 goals in his final 18 games of the season) and will be cheaper than Marner when he signs his extension. Plus we don't need wingers.

Calgary says no. These bottom six, multiyear, 3+ million contracts are going to be toxic for the next 3 years. Calgary would be better off walking away from Janko than bringing in cap for a position they dont need.

Lots of ufas less than 1million for the bottom six.

This is a luxury offer for Jankowski. I'm sure Calgary will accept.

Wrong. Same reason why Toronto fans want to get rid of these multiyear bottom six contracts. They aren't worth it in the current cap environment. If it met a need maybe but left shot forward is surplus for calgary. Probably a better team out there for AK.

It ain't the flames.

No, wrong. The Flames need AJ. He is a huge upgrade over Jankowski.

No the flames do not. They need a right shot forward. AJ at that cap hit and term is hot garbage for the flames.
