I think it probably costs Bennett, Hudler, Russell, 1st for Stamkos. That is an insane package but that is a top 5 player just entering his prime years. Tamp gets long term Daley relief and a dynamic young player to grow with Drouin. They also get a top 6 forward that Yzerman is familiar with and a top 4/5 D that plays a heart and soul game along with a first.
Calgary gets a true superstar to pair with Gaudreau for what we assume is the next 6-8 years

Stamkos is arguably already starting to decline. He's been playing well below a point per game since about March of 2014. This is an example of the name being bigger than the player. He wasn't even the best player on his own team last season, let alone top 5 in the league.
