It was still a great trade for the Flames and that sentiment was agreed upon among pretty much any NHL guy that matters and more importantly, Oiler fans.

Oilers got hosed.
I think this is why he's pretty confused about everyone piling on him. He said that Smid is a mediocre bottom pairing player. Most people feel he is a great bottom pairing guy and a mediocre/poor #4. The distinction between the opinions didn't really warrant the reaction.
