Trade activity is ramping up around the NHL, and on Thursday night, we saw the Calgary Flames make a move that gave their middle six forward group a big boost.

Calgary general manager Craig Conroy confirmed that left-wingers Andrei Kuzmenko and Jakob Pelletier and a pair of draft picks were traded to the Philadelphia Flyers for centre Morgan Frost and left-winger Joel Farabee.

Daniel Brière and Co. decided to shake up the mix and move on from two young players who not too long ago were viewed as key parts of the organization's rebuild.
