<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>gary_bettman</b></div><div>hahahaha Wow you are so far from a deal here. It starts with Pelletier + 1st.</div></div>

Generally you don't see top prospects included in deals for rentals. When was the last time a 1st + a top tier prospect like Pelletier was dealt for a rental? Last year Foligno returned a 1st and a 4th, Savard returned a 1st and a 3rd. In 2020 Pageau returned a 1st, 2nd and 3rd (and an extension was in place), and Coleman (with term left) returned Foote and a 1st. So with Hertl being a pure rental, I think the ceiling of what you're looking at is likely a 1st + 2nd + 2nd or a 1st + mid-tier prospect (like Foote), or perhaps a 1st + 2nd + mid-tier prospect.

1st + Pelletier? You won't get that level of return.

Sujet: The Worst BUT Most Likely Offseason Outcome
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SmugTkachuk</b></div><div>This is the sad but accurate truth. Great to stabilize the crease, but it really wasn't a glaring issue last year. Not enough top end grit, a ton of talent, but a very easy team to play against when the top 6 is out there, other than Tkachuk.
I agree with Brodie being a huge mistake, I see Brian Campbell in the sense that those smooth skating d men are great, until they're not and then they're really bad, rather bring back Gutafsson at 3 - 3.5
I still don't like Bennett as a 3C, start him at 4C and see if he can tighten up defensively, he was great at beating up a depleted Winnipeg team but the quick D of Dallas exposed him. I think if you can get another 3C like Haula then you can play Bennett and Ryan on the same line and get Bennett's defensive game to improve. Don't know where that money comes from though.</div></div>

Bennett has earned the 3C spot. Not only has he earned it, but it's also about putting players in a position to succeed - and the 3C is that spot for Benny. Especially as the Flames do introduce more grit into their line-up - they need more minutes for Bennett. Lucic - Bennett - Dube should start together.
