Devils need help on the left side and Calgary might be selling. What would be fair value?
I'd Trade you Brodie for Joey Anderson, Nathan Bastian, Blake Speers and a second.
Yeah and I would love for Calgary to have it.That’s like the whole future of our right wing.

I'd explore this depending on what your definition of "work around" is.Brodie for Palmieri seems like something to work around. Otherwise I don't see much that fits Calgary's needs.
I like Zacha but I think that's probably too good of a deal to pass up.Zacha and Bastian.
I think that Brodie/Palmieri is interesting as a basis for a deal (probably even straight up). The catch for me is, then we'd have to find another top 4 defenseman to play on the left side (unless Peters will entertain using Michael Stone or Travis Hamonic on the left side).
I think NJ would do that.I think that Brodie/Palmieri is interesting as a basis for a deal (probably even straight up).

"by Kent Wilson" I urge anyone to stop there, the guy is a certifiable moron. Listening to Kent Wilson about anything is akin to trusting Eklund on trade rumors. I would trust a homeless man holing up a sign before anything that hack writes.Brodie has been pretty damn awful the last couple of years. I would not trade Palmieri for him.
The shocking decline of TJ Brodie
Paywall, but all the info is here
Giordano makes others better, he is a certifiable perennial Norris candidate IMO. TJ Brodie is a #3 defenseman that played over his head when with Giordano. That "dip" is honestly no more than Brodie p[laying to his actual level, which is a #3 defensemen, but because so many Flames fans were convinced that Brodie was better than Giordano for some stupid reason they shit all over Brodie for "struggling". They ignore than for 75% of 2016-17 he had to carry the lifeless carcass of Dennis Wideman on the Flames second pairing, he was also playing for a coach that limited his offensive gifts. For the better part of 2017-18 once Hamonic and Brodie adjusted to playing together (mid-late November and on), Brodie played like a #3.I wouldn't deal Palmieri. He's a big part of our offensive production and has been remarkably consistent since he came here. Not sure why many NJ fans have neglected him but his points per game this year were right in line with his last 2 seasons, just dealt with a number of nagging injuries. He's also a major player on our PP.
I've always liked Brodie but it seems like his game has dipped quite a bit ever since he started pairing with someone other than Giordano. Can any Flames fans confirm if that's the case?

Don't know who Kent Wilson is, but the Athletic is superb and he backs up his facts with figures. I'm inclined to believe the premise of his article"by Kent Wilson" I urge anyone to stop there, the guy is a certifiable moron.

Brodie has not been "pretty damn bad", he's been a regular number 3 after playing over his head for a couple years with Giordano.
Brodie hasn't been all that good the past two years. So anyone trying to get him would likely be betting on a bounce back year. But at the same time Brodie at his peak would've cost a lot more than Palmieri, in 2015-2016 he was pretty much a top 20 D man.Don't know who Kent Wilson is, but the Athletic is superb and he backs up his facts with figures.

No way. Brodie's value isn't as high as it was in the past, but Zacha has lesser production than Sam Bennett, and Bastian was completely underwhelming in the AHL this year. HARD pass. If Brodie gets traded it's for a top six RW, like PalmieriZacha and Bastian.
