The problem with trade grades is that they usually just compare players. In reality the grade should be against what other trades were available (a complete guess) and just riding to UFA (bad).

Another good point to consider is how would the Athletic grade the Toffoli trade now?
As Conroy pointed out the player we got in the Toffoli trade needed more opportunity. Something the Athletic couldn't forsee because they weren't looking at the same things from the perspective the Flames were.
It's useless to go by what the Athletic said because they're merely making an observation without likely having spent any time watching the player.
