even with the benefit of hindsight, I have zero issues with the Toffoli trade at all. They were having a decent season and felt Toffoli was a great fit (and he was), and they didn't give up a whole lot. Late 1st (Mesar), B prospect (Heineman) and Pitlick ... yeah, I do that trade again in a heartbeat. I mean, Toffoli went on to have a career year for us, for crying out loud. Sure, 22-23 was terrible, but that wasn't exactly on Toffoli.
like others have said, bottom line is Mesar+Pitlick+Heineman for Sharangovich+Suniev, plus Toffolis contribution to the Flames. Not a bad deal at all.
