Point is you can’t determine that they wouldn’t have had vast improvements with it without the trade and hence it becomes an opinion based on ones subjective view.

Okay so both teams improve as a whole, both teams fill a need positionally, the players they acquire have career seasons directly contributing to their success, and the flames lock up both pieces to terms that match the rest of their core...but this requires some kind of deeper analysis?
You’re welcome to your opinion, but give us some substance to it other than “I have a right to say this”. So far your points seem to be that Hamilton is really good (no debate here) and that it annoys you people think it’s a slam dunk for the flames. So then a few of us agree both teams win, but that makes you even more upset. Why don’t you take a breath and outline something that makes sense.
