The Calgary Flames made several moves before the March 6th trade deadline, shipping out defensemen Rasmus Anderson and Mackenzie Weigar for picks, prospects, and players like Zach Wyclow and Oli Mietta. They also picked a Brian Strong cheaply. Meanwhile, the Carolina Hurricanes stayed quiet, grabbing just one death forward. With the teams facing off Saturday, it's a good time to look back at their trade history since the Hurricanes moved to Raleigh. The first big swap came in 1997, when the Flames and Goli Trevor Kid and Gary Roberts to Carolina for Andrew Cassel's and Jean-Sébastien Guiguaire. Roberts kept producing for the Hurricanes, while Guiguaire showed early promise before shining elsewhere, including a Stanley Cup win. The Flames missed out on developing him fully. Other deals followed, like trading Bob Boner for late picks that didn't pan out, and flipping my Commodore, who later won a cup with Carolina.

1:03In 2010, Ian White moved from Calgary to the Hurricanes midseason, but bounced around without much impact, along with other minor pieces like Kevin Westgarth. A key trade in 2017 saw the Flames acquire Eddie Lacken others, landing a seventh-round pick that became star-goli Dustin Wolf. In 2015, Calgary sent Dougie Hamilton and prospects to Carolina for Noah Hanifen and Elias Linholm, who helped the Flames contend. Before getting dealt themselves, these trades show mixed results for both sides, with Calgary winning some like the Wolf pick and losing others. Expect more deals down the line, as both teams rebuild. Special thanks to our sponsor for supporting this episode. It looks like a pillow. It sounds like headphones.
