If the Flames aren't going to improve on the ice with these trades they need to aim higher than 3rd round picks.

As the younger and less developed player, is he supposed to be?
Depends on what metrics you're using as "good".
Sure Tyler puts up points fairly reliably, but is that the be all end all? Does a guy like Tyler put a team over the top or move the needle much when it comes down to it?
If the Devils robbed us of a gem shouldn't they be even better this year? Looks like the team has taken a step back, if anything.
I'm very bullish on Suniev also, and he would likely be a late 1st pick in most other years.
I think this a severely premature evaluation.
Toffoli will regress in the coming years, whereas the guys we got are on the way up. That seems in line with where the Flames are headed organizationally.
