I said it last year and I’ll say it again. The Hamonic trade sunk this team. Trying to force the team out of a rebuild by unloading assets for an average d man and average goalies was a very Flames thing to do. If the Flames don’t make those trades for Lazar, Smith, and Hamonic they probably have the assets available to pull off trades for Mark Stone last year or Hall this year. Hopefully after they blow this core up, which is inevitably going to happen, they will be patient before going all in on the wrong players at the wrong time.
