If the flames traded Matt stajan for the 1st overall pick next year it's an incredible trade, if they pick the next Yakupov or Daigle etc. And it busts that doesn't make it a bad trade
Who the team drafted is seperate

I'm with Roof-Daddy on this one - a great trade for the Flames, but a fleecing should also mean the team that got fleeced would have been way better off if it hadn't made the trade. It's debatable how much better the Sharks would have been if they'd kept Kipper.
