I don't think you get what was going on with this apparent proposed trade. Huge jump to assume we would have had to give that up on a player that was just bought out, Coyotes were looking to save cash and cap space, it's all about what they were willing to pay in assets to do it. Flames were in the drivers seat there, too bad it didn't pan out.
