I don't mind it, we as fans understood Zadorov's weaknesses (struggles when elevated into top 4) and maybe we feel like the rest of the NHL sees a better player because he throws a big hit here and there. They know.

Only frustrating thing is the better pick being 3 drafts away, that's brutal. That player, if he's anything will likely be making a Flames roster in 2029 at the earliest. Woof. I'm of the belief that a 2026 pick is significantly less valuable in a trade than a 2024.
