It's fine TBH.
The 2025 pick has top 10 protection but the 2026 pick has no protection and guys like Pietrangelo, Marchessault, and Stone are starting to age out a bit.
Vegas is going all in for this season it appears and want their 2024 1st and 2025 1st available to be able to go after Guentzel tomorrow.
If almost be shocked if they don't get Guentzel at this point.
Flames never should have been afraid of future 1st round picks in any of the deals...I actually prefer them.
The real problem is it should have been the 1st, 2nd with no condition, and one of Edstrom, Sapovaliv, Cormier or Korczak.
But the condition on the 1st is fine.
