Not a great start for Connie. I have to think that if you put this trade in NHL23 as NJD and propose it to CGY, your XBox just laughs itself into a smouldering heap.
I’ll await the deep thinkers roasting me on how a 30 point player is a steal for a 30 goal scorer.

Because teams know we are trying to dump him and the market is very limited. He won’t re-sign and we’re not letting him play it out. Flames also don’t want to wait until the deadline. All those limitations affect the flames and the return.
NJ had all the bargaining power here, not the flames.
