I agree completely, it is also now looking like Stajan will be a key leader in a rebuild and could be here for 8+ years when it's all said and done.
Do you know what the worst part of the trade was IMO? The fact Brent Sutter was coaching them. He almost destroyed Stajan and he did destroy Hagman IMO. If Keenan was still in Calgary I think we would have seen the deal in a completely different light. That being that we got 2/3 of a 2nd line and a top 4 defenseman.
That said if Keenan was still here I don't think they would have needed to trade Phaneuf.
