I'm just curious to see what people think of this sorta trade; from Pitt's perspective I'd actually rather have Jultz right now than Dougie; they seem to be producing about the same, and Jultz costs less (both now and, probably, in the future) as well as already being familiar with the group and the system and the organization.

I also don't exactly think the Pens should be all that excited to move Flower at the moment, and maybe not even through this season.

But: is this a way to move Flower? And maybe a sensible way for the future? Hamilton is an expensive contract to pick up for sure, but he's a great young defenseman to have behind Letang on the right side.

From the Flames perspective: I don't follow them much, but they've been a bit better lately; do they still need to reassess their netminder duo? Would the idea of trading Hamilton receive a swift and forceful rejection?

Maybe more needs to be added on one side or another of the deal; clearly I don't think it's a deal which should be made immediately, so it's contingent to some degree on where these two teams stand around the deadline, or whenever the deal might be made.

Any thoughts?
