He's a good player, but Mangiapane and Dube were good players. Valimaki was once a top prospect. None of these players should be off the table for a player like Eichel, or Stone, or players like Petey, especially of they are in the early mid 20s and could be a part of our core for the next 8-10 years.
Personally, a deal like Zary, Morin, NJ 1st, and 2026 2nd for Petey is a deal you take for the Flames.
With that said, I do understand that there's an argument that the timing is not right because we are year 1 of a rebuild.

Petey is a player that gets you to the playoffs, not through the playoffs. Agree with many here. Pass on this player. Team with petey as their best player won’t win post season.
