What get me in a knot is suggesting the majority doesn't have critical thinking and are just lemmings. That's not fair at all.

I think Flames fans were so worried about getting a terrible return (see Phaneuf) that getting a quality package back caused some strong emotional responses.
What amazes me is this trade essentially has no downside. If we sign Huberdeau I think it's a massive win as we still have other pieces to extract value from. If we can't sign Huberdeau we have more pieces to move around and can still do a full rebuild.
I'm in the camp who thinks Florida made a knee jerk reaction to their playoff losses and bought into some league wide Tkachuk hype. Of course only time will tell.
