Roy for Ott was an awesome trade. Not sure if you've been following, but Ott has more goals, comparable number of points, has become a leader on the team, and brings a physical/pest presence that was sorely missing. Roy bumbled around on Dallas for 30 games and got traded.
Not sure what's wrong with valuing draft picks, prospects, and the future. If Calgary had done that at any point in the last ten years they probably wouldn't be in the position they are now.

I don't know, Roy was one of your better players, just seems odd to trade him for a Steve Ott. Sure he may be putting up some points this year, but he's not a guy you typically trade a 2nd line centre for.
Plus you had to eat Adam Pardy's salary too.
I know if Feaster made that trade, he'd get roasted on here and by every other "hockey guy".
