Considering also that the Cammalleri trade smacked of getting Iginla a linemate. Now that he's not here anymore, time is ticking on Cammalleri's time in Calgary. They will likely keep him because who else is going to score goals, but he'll be moved before the deadline.
All in all, not a good trade.
And now, back to draft discussion.

Still a good trade if we can flip Cammy for a 1st at the deadline. We dumped Bourque who would be toxic on our young team and likely a buyout candidate. It is not the slam dunk win I used to think it was though
