yup.
the question is whether the trade was made before knowing Barzal and Connor were available...
i know i was hoping for Barzal or Connor and was surprised how far they dropped...
now that said, i thought the Hamilton deal was a pretty solid one too...but in hindsight, i wonder if you pull the trigger on that trade if they knew Barzal/Connor was available...
of course no guarantee that Barzal would have been the pick calgary would have made, but he was available at #15, the pick calgary traded to Boston
