He's had 40 and 60 points his last two seasons playing with much better linemates than he'll have in Calgary.
70-80 point seems a long way off.
Plus his contract demands is scaring off Minny.
He is young though, and it seems like a typical Calagry trade to try and stay competitive.
I just don't see it as a means to becoming a contender.
