Smuggest guy on this board lol. I don't think many people missed that the Flames got older. It was a move to extend the window by 4 years or so. Most perople were hyped because there were limited trading partners and a tight time frame to do it. You can argue if the Flames should have signed Huberdeau and Weegar or flipped them but I can't see St. Louis or Carolina beating the return.
