You can't convince me that Engelland is worth more than 4 Pardys.

Who cares. If this is a bad signing, overpayment, etc... what's it really going to cost us. I don't say that to imply that making bad deals is fine over and over again if you are in a situation like the Flames, but holistically, does it really matter at this point if we made a less than stellar move? Especially considering it seems as though the Flames are aware (reading between the lines on the GMs comments) that they probably paid more then what he'd be worth, but did what they needed to do to get a player they wanted considering they could afford the "downside".
If I believe that our GM through 2.9 for Engelland was a steal, I'd be more worried.
