Hold up.
How was Paul Byron a "horrible" return for a 32 year old Regehr + Kotalik's dead salary (=7 million cap hit). Byron wwould have been tied for second on the Flames in goals this year while being a highly versatile even strength player and elite penalty killer.
If our GM were smart enough to combine a good aging vet like Stajan with an anchor contract like Brouwer and come out of it with a Byron caliber 22 year old I certainly would not call that a "horrible" return. In fact I would consider it a pipe dream.
