BUT you would still have the draft to move these players, and potentially more suitors at that time (especially since a lot of the East has made their moves already).

So in the end it really all comes down to the offers you get and if you feel that it's such good value that you can't say no.

I also don't think anybody saw the market being as ridiculous as it's been so far this year - the questions earlier this year were if any team would move a 2023 1st since that draft looked so deep. So I don't think anybody saw this crazy sellers market happening, and I think the Flames maybe missed the boat on that a bit too.
I can agree that as a fan we may be shocked.

However, you can't tell me "the hardest working GM in the league" and the "GM who kicks tires on everything" was completely shocked by this and now they have missed the boat. If that is the case, maybe Treliving isn't that good.
