Brown >>> Coleman. No reason not to play him with Mangiapane after the WC that they had together.

But also if Brown > Coleman then the return should at the very least be similar to the return that Coleman got. I don’t think this is. Ottawa likely isn’t interested in Valimaki because LD is full moving forward. Replace Valimaki with Zary, Coronato or at least upgrade the picks and you’ll have Ottawa’s interest for sure.

Oh was wondering why you weren't interested but it seems the OP has changed the prospect to Zary

I would be happy with this return if it comes to having to trade Connor Brown. Ottawa needs him as much (if not more) than some teams but it is what it is. Maybe he'll be out of budget

Agreed, it will all come down to how much money and term Brown is looking for on his next contract.

Seattle cant retain on Gio, and its an overpay imo. So wouldnt do that.

Brown for Zary and a 2nd is enticing for both sides (some will probably think its a little much from the Flames). Personally would like Brown as a 2nd RW with Mang and whoever at C.
