This is such an outrageously bad trade.

All of the players coming from Philly have negative or zero value. A declining Voracek at $8.250/year is bad. Calgary takes back a net $6 million dollars in cap, trades away by far the best player in the deal, and gets older.

Tanner Laczynski? Sixth overall pick who's yet to play anywhere outside of college? Future captain of a Honda Dealership sales team?

Seriously, even if Laczynski does find a way to the NHL, he can sign with whoever he wants via the NCAA loophole. This player literally has no value, and Philly doesn't even control his rights anymore due to the loophole.
