Faulk for Edmunson + Bokk ... no real fit for the Flames here
Kadri for Barrie and Kerfoot ... Flames actually made this deal & Kadri refused to waive his NTC.
JT Miller for a 1st...Critized this trade for the Canucks when they made it but it's worked out good for them.
Trouba for 1st and Pionk .... Trouba only wanted to play in NYC
I'd argue the biggest "hockey" trade of the last three offseasons was actually made by this GM.
Hanifin & Linhdolm for Hamilton, Ferland, Fox
Trades don't happen in the NHL frequent enough. This isn't a Brad Treliving problem, it's an NHL problem. NHL GMs in general are too afraid to make trades.

Kadri refusing the trade was huge. Was a perfect type of player that this team needed.
