Kyle Connor is an elite sniper, but Blake Coleman has more goals on the third line for Calgary, as well as being an elite shutdown winger who kills penalties.
Just sayin', this is why it's important for our GM and the pro scouts to do their homework on any trade returns. It's how you can extract guys like Sharangovich and Kuzmenko from situations where they aren't valued.

Bro there's a very, very large gulf between Coleman and Connor.
