I'm not suggesting they did win anything with Dougie here

Hanifin and Lindholm are both young-ish core pieces. That first for Dougie still worked out great though...a mid first, fox, Ferkland
For two top 5 picks.

Trading a unprotected firsts for older rentals like the Panthers isn't a good idea I agree.
Trading a mid to late first for a high end signed youngish player can certainly be a good move though.

Flames have multiple top five drafts picks on their team, they just didn't happen to draft them...our guys bailed.
