But here is the answer anyways. I am unhappy that after 7 years this team sucks. It is soft and not entertaining at all. During the Treliving tenure there were a number of forwards that changed teams, via trade or free agency, yet, the Calgary Flames continued with the status quo. To add insult to injury, we know that the GM actually tried to get some of these good forwards but came up short. So it wasn't ignorance. It was more like incompetence.

And just to add. If a trade happened, it means that it was possible. You made it sound like it wasn't. Dare to answer why?
You keep arguing against yourself. You don’t know what trades were possible, but since they didn’t happen it’s incompetence.

As for your question, I’m sure a trade was possible. I don’t think a smart trade was possible in many of these cases you’ve brought up. Coming up short just means you wouldn’t outbid someone who you think paid too much.
