Quote:
Ultimately, the fact Calgary got two players who belong in an NHL lineup and who also have a teensy bit of upside puts me in their corner. It’s a cheap upgrade that could help them get a couple of home playoff games, given their spot in the standings. Philly, meanwhile, dumps Farabee’s contract. Perhaps that’s all reason enough. Still, though — mediocre teams moving mediocre assets. Don’t let the size of the deal fool you.
Flames grade: C+
Flyers grade: D+
