The bolded is an interesting point and I'd be interested in seeing some support for the assertion. Of course it has nothing to do with the deadline deals either. Or are you stating the Flames are deep enough in prospects that they should value draft picks less than other teams?

I think the fact he gained some picks so that he’d be in a position to try and shore up defence, or other areas, is a factor to consider.
