We then saw the further erosion of the value of forwards/the trade market as a whole never really developed (due to cap).

At the time, I still stand by the reaction - and through the first month and a half of this season, it looked on point. Since then? Sharangovich has been fire. Very cool to see this develop into such a very clear "W" for Connie and the Flames in the short term. Even if Sharangovich (unlikely) goes on to drop off next season, the whole idea of acquiring Toffoli was short term need for the Devils...and Sharangovich's play has erased that, and oh - he came with a 3rd.
All good man ... we have to have differing views.

But the quick drive bys on that first page with dramatic, instant and short know it all negative opinions were tiresome that day, and hilarious now.
