I just wish it had happened.
Look at the numbers for those two players since.
Losing Brodie was inevitable, at least in this case there would have been a substantial return.

Yeah, I just can’t land there. It is required for you to believe that losing Brodie was inevitable. That’s not even known to be true. What was reported was that Tre asked Brodie to wait until he was done with his top priority, and came back to find Brodie had committed to Toronto, no?
And even in that case, the Flames have a failed trade, and are holding the bag with a loss of Brodie for nothing, an increase in cap, and downgrade in personnel at two key positions
I don’t know. We all tell ourselves what we need, but in this case a failure is a failure.
