It sounds like a great trade for Calgary and that’s really exciting but for me most of all it’s the clarity on strategic direction that I like the most.
This trade is consistent with what I believe they need to do to get the team back to a contending level and I know it kills them to use the word “rebuild” but this trade really cements that they’re doing that.
I know others have said the previous trades did that, or suggested that strategy too, but I dunno, to me- this one really seals it.
It’ll be exciting to see what they get for the rest of the UFAs and (IMO) as well, Markstrom should also be dealt.
