I admit to 100% thinking we pulled off the steal of the century when it happened (and I was one of the few who said Tkachuk was going to be good)... but I'm firmly in the camp of thinking we got hosed big time now.
Edit: I guess the trade itself was still pretty good. It was really us that hosed ourselves by signing both of them to max term before seeing them in action under Sutter.

Oh god, Flames didn't trade nine years of Tkachuk he demanded a trade to one of a handful of teams. Flames traded one year of Tkachuk as he was a pending ufa
Tkachuk hosed the Flames
Also, Huberdeau is having a rough year in a far more defense system than Florida. He had more points with the Panthers last season than Tkachuk will though.
