Blame the owners for their need to hang onto the playoffs for these two. Iggy and Regehr should've been traded a couple of seasons before they actually were. Regehr was a shell of a man by the time he was traded.
The Bouwmeester trade wasn't great, but we acquired the guy for a 3rd and fairly useless (at the time) Leopold. And just the season before people were calling for him to be waived.....so getting a 1st, a decent goalie, and a minor league prospect is not totally terrible asset management.
I'm not really sure what value you expected out of Tanguay. I don't think that guys value was very high this summer after his pity party of a season.
It's ok to be angry about not getting enough out of the trades, but at least put a little context into that anger.
