The Flames just had to get ahead of the 0 other teams interested in signing Michael Stone on July 1st. Blatantly threw a 5th-round pick in the garbage for no reason - on a contract they later bought out.

Again, not a big mistake in isolation but the culmination of assets disposed for stupid #### is eye opening.
