I can understand the retained salary being a positive but beyond that I struggle to find any positive of this trade.

There are tonnes of responses which discuss why the Flames made this trade, but I never called it a "win for the Flames." I don't think it is a particularly good deal, but that is completely different from insisting that this is one of the worst Flames trades of all time. It is not. There is value for the Flames—not much, but definitely enough to have decided to pull the trigger.
