Hamonic we really don't know yet. Giving up 3 great draft picks might not have been worth it.
Hiring Gulutzan at best was an average move.

Personally I've thought Hamonic and Giordano have been the Flames' two best defensive defenders this year so I'm calling that a positive.
The reason that I made Versteeg/Jagr into one is that Versteeg was useful last year and Jagr this year. Versteeg was a very useful weapon in multiple situations last year (and it's early this year) while Jagr has been a great presence on that powerplay this year -- no wonder it's been so terrible ever since he went on the shelf.
