Saying the Flames needed a defenseman and saying they had to trade two 2nds and a first for Travis Hamonic are two entirely different things
I guess you're saying that since the Flames need a winger you are going to praise whatever UFA they may pick up, no matter the deal.

How do you get that from what I am saying? Edit: nvm, I see you were responding to someone else.
However...
The poster made mention that the team was deep on defense and so the trade didn't address a clear need. I posted the situation at the time of the deal to illustrate that there was in fact a clear need, and an overwhelming one too.
You don't have to like what he gave up to get him, but the fact he went out and got someone of Hamonic's caliber was a good thing, full stop.
