Exchanging Tanguay for Jones is something that's easy enogh to live with. I guess the fact that Sarich was as disgruntled as he was with Hartley, and needing to be moved irks me. I think Sarich could have been a good mentor for some of the younger defencemen if him and the coach were more agreeable.
End of the day the cap money on O'Brien means nothing, and the Flames are likely out a potential mid round pick that they surely could have got for Sarich this season in a deadline deal. Hopefully they can find a way to get some value into O'Brien so they can move him.
