Fine. But that wasn't what they did. They took on the crap contract so that the trade would be possible. It was a salary cap move.
Dollars going in equalled dollars going out, and the Flames got a pick for a player that they were not going to re-sign and had no particular use for this season. Show me what they lost, and I'll agree it was a bad deal. But they lost nothing at all.
