He's got 8 goals in 53 games, as he's been injured since February. Granlind's 224 NHL games to Shinkaruk's 15 makes it clear who is NHL player and who is not.
Regarding the scale of the trade comments, those are fair and that surely was a minor trade, but it does indicate Flames' player evaluation skills, or lack of thereof.
