Anyway... it would have been far from awful I think!

I disagree.
I think Guadreau and Monahan have shown that they have similar potential to Seguin. Maybe not quite as high but having two players that are "1st line to elite" is going to be better for the Flames than one elite player.
It wouldn't have been the worst trade in the world by any stretch but I'm happy we didn't make it. It's just easier for two very, very good players to improve the team than one elite player.
We don't need the Iginla era version 2.
