The team might be better in the long run, but there is absolutely no way they are better today than they were on Saturday morning. We gave up the best defenseman and arguably the best forward in the deal for
possibly the best defenseman and
probably will become the best forward.
It's really impossible to judge a true winner right now, because as you said this was a hockey deal and the Flames gambled on potential, but I don't think for a second the team is now better at this point in time.
