Sure, Seguin is the best player in the trade, but there are 3 things that bother me:

1) hip concerns
2) we give up 5 years of ELCs
3) it illustrates that there is no rebuild. With Seguin here, Feaster and co will go hard in free agency for guys like Horton. Flames become a 9th, 10th place team trying to build through free agency again.

Would rather keep acquiring free assets (and ELCs) for the next 2 or 3 years
The flames would have 3 strong building blocks for the future (Tyler, Sven, TJ) plus 2 1st round picks in this draft. Johnny is still boom-bust so I like the deal as rumored
