I'm torn. On the one hand, I don't really want to see the Flames trade a first rounder for a guy like Zucker. Such a player is a solid add, but does he really move the needle to turn the Flames into a true contender? We have seen how the team looks when Monahan and Gaudreau are shut down and does a guy like Zucker change that?

So I'm OK with big game hunting, but just not sold on Hall as the guy. Problem is, big time players aren't available all that often.

One thing I'm quite sure of. Treliving not basing his thinking purely on how team has played in last two weeks.
