Imagine what those pieces could have been used on instead. Essentially gave up what we traded for Hamilton for nothing.

His trading of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round picks is scary.
3rd rounder for Gustafson
1st, 2nd, 2nd for hamonic
3rd for smith
2nd for Lazar
3rd for stone
2nd for Elliott
1st, 2nd, 2nd for Hamilton
3rd for bollig
Compare that list to darryl sutter, who gets crucified for his use of picks in trades. Man it was fun as a fan, flames were landing some big name players in their prime there.
3rd for staois
2nd for stralman
3rd for bouwmeester rights
1st for jokinen
2nd for bourque
2nd for tanguay
1st for cammalleri (trading 2nds considered a wash here)
3rd for hale
2nd for Conroy
3rd for lydman
2nd for Nilsson
2nd for kipper
(ignoring other pieces involved in these trades)
