No it's not... buy up some guys on redemption deals if you hit lightning in a bottle then you're good and if you don't then you have extra assets to peddle at the deadline next year. It's Win-Win. I would like to see them stay away from any long-term deals (3 or more years). But other then that buy away.
I have zero desire to see Calgary pull an Edmonton and burn all our young guys ELC years on non-contention years, let them ripen in leagues other then the NHL and then bring them up.
