No, they lost their best winger and were forced to trade their second-best. But signing Kadri was a straightforward effort to improve at C, and IIRC, Treliving was on record before the Tkachuk trade as saying he wanted to upgrade the D.

The Flames' GM did a brilliant job of getting exactly what he wanted and what he thought his team needed. He didn't just let random parts fall into his lap.
