When I say that was a lame trade, it truly is very underwhelming! Stop making these dumb conditional agreements on trades! Flames could've actually got Oiler's 2024 first + round pick + Ceci.

So you are upset that the Flames could have got the 31st or 32nd pick and a plug who is a cap burden and a borderline NHL dman but instead got a former 48th overall pick and the 61st pick plus whatever the value of 3.25 million in cap space is?
In the 2021 draft the 27th overall pick was traded for the 40th and 51st picks. Suspect one could trade 48 and 61 for the 31st or 32nd pick. In my books the Flames came out ahead by not having Ceci.
