And I can't stand Cheveldayoff.

Both teams lose this deal. The Sabers and Jets were both trading what were perceived to be impact high value pieces, and due to the underwhelming performances of all those involved - no one really got impact pieces back.
Bogoisan and Myers are basically a wash.
And everything else is just a bunch of stuff moving in either direction.
It is very similar to the Flames and the Phaneuf deal. It was a bad trade because of the return they likely could have got elsewhere, not because Phaneuf went on to be a great player.
The fact is that the stuff the Jets got back - haven't really turned into much.
So not a fleecing - just a team that really hasn't worked out for either team as they would have hoped.
