For sure but if Treliving makes that same deal for the Flames people here would be pulling their hair out mad. I understand why the Penguins did it but if you are strictly looking at the trade based on assets moving in and out it's an extremely poor trade for the Penguins. You simply don't trade that sort of capital for a decent player.
