In hindsight, we are better off with Zadorov as a left shot considering Andersson, Tanev, Weegar and Stone are all right shots.
I wonder if Gudbranson gave the Flames a chance to match like Zadorov did for the Flames? Not that I would want the Flames to match the Gudbranson offer, but I really appreciate that Zadorov wanted to stay in Calgary enough to give the Flames the consideration.
