I agree the Flames biggest need going into last summer IMO was getting a young pick moving Dman which they were able to do trading for Hamilton. Considering Dougie got off to a rocky start but still finished with 12 goals and 43pts still grades that trade as an easy win A+ move for Calgary.
Having said that Connor would be an awesome prospect to have however we would still be lacking a young top Dman and likely would have paid Russell stupid money to retain him
