I kinda like it. I'd like it a lot more if we could have got a middle round pick as a throw-in (for taking on the worst contract in the deal, you know), but it's not that bad. I hope that Jones just needs a change of scenery ... he'll get plenty of opportunities in Calgary. I like that we get bigger and a bit younger ... I can't stand SOB but I guess he's the kind of player that you learn to appreciate when on your team.
the age difference balances it off. Tangauy and Sarich are both in the twilight's of their career and not the glistening type.

If this team is going to struggle next year which it will at least we have some good physical effort types.

And yes we might appreciate O'brien more when he sees the ice, this team has had a shortage of bite since Iggy went soft.
