This is fundamental to all trades: that they (theoretically) give up equal value to what they receive and therefore, (you seem to be proposing) there is no net benefit. So I guess teams should never trade?

SImple question (and it isn't stacked - just curious as to your thoughts):

Would you rather have Jankowski and Sieloff or have Girgensons? (we don't know who the Flames might have drafted, so all we can do is assume who actually was)

For me, based on where the organization was at the time, I am much happier with Jankowski and Sieloff than with Girgensons (or Teravainen, for example)
