The Granlund trade was fine. It was not "great" for the Flames, and it was not bad for the Flames. It just happened, and that is all.
Yes, I supposed I was speaking a little hyperbolically. Glad maybe be extreme, but my point was simply that we don't need to sit here and create a narrative that suggests Treliving traded an elite player for beans.

Granlund for Shinkaruk isn't a terrible deal. I hope Shinkaruk eventually finds a home with the parent club and can contribute 15 goals a season.
