We discussed that at length in the Chicago PGT. Reasonable people can disagree on what the desired outcome would be; it's a very slight difference either way based on the model we looked at.
I think the only reason the condition is in the trade is to try to mitigate the loss in the Flames' value in case Vancouver does make it that far and the value of the 1st rounder drops.
