Hamonic was supposed to a really solid top 3D with some room to improve and he didn't. Great example of a trade that ended up hurting the Flames.
If they trade that kind of package for PLD and he tops out where he is, it will be a huge blow to the Flames.
If the cost is that high and the pro scouts do not think PLD will take the next step then I won't be mad if the Flames don't bite.
