If the Isles sign Horvat, then it is a great deal for them

Horvat is not #1 center in a contending team - he'd basically play a similar role to that of Kadri behind MacKinnon for the Avs. Also, they were not trading Horvat, they were trading 30 games of Horvat so the return is IMHO decent. Flames got late 1st (Morgan Klimchuk), Ben Hanowski and Kenny Agostino for Iginla as a pending UFA.
