National Post had the Flames as one of the NHL's "Day 1 Biggest Winners" (and Edmonton as one of the Day 1 Biggest Losers). The move is even polarizing among the media it seems.
Personally I like it. For a July 1 signing the contract is decent, and as much as we want young players, you can't ice a team of exclusively under 25's. Need some vet leadership outside of just Gio.
