This trade was a trade that gave the Flames a chance to improve this year, but it is still a great move long term.
They added 2 players who are 25 and have 300 and 400 career games. It gives Conny options as he moves players out to have a young team with some young players who have lots of NHL experience.
It's a lot easier to move on from guys like Coleman/Backlund when you have replacements lined up on the team already.
