I don't mind this trade in a bubble that just looks at price for player, or just wants to drool over our D line-up (which is undoubtedly drool-worthy now), but outside of that bubble, I see Treliving spending some very valuable assets to add a 4th top-tier defenseman while the team continues to have zero top 6 right wingers in the league or even in the cupboard.

Given the depth of D prospects Calgary has, I'm not sold that this deal is wise overall. Hopefully I'll feel different before camp opens,when Tre has finished his off-season work
They have two premium left wingers. They have a rock solid #2RW. They need one guy to come in and fit with Johnny and Sean.

Jagr has never played in Canada. Problem solved
