Well he did want to move on so the team had to move him between the summer and trade deadline. That said Conny sold really, really low so I'm kind of glad he hasn't made any more trades as I'm hoping the offers at the deadline are at least better as the Flames can't afford another bad trade like that.

%100.
We downgraded hard in the area we already had a glaring weakness in.
What a surprise we're having goal scoring troubles.

You just have to hope someone in this organization has some intellectual honesty about how garbage this team is. Only hope at this point

Doesn't exactly inspire confidence for future trades.

I've never seen you as an optimistic poster, but that is some serious optimism!

Do you see a lengthy winning streak coming from this group?
They can't overcome a 2 goal deficit. Heck, I think one might be too much in some instances.
Edit: Unless sarcasm, then ok.

Doesn't matter, you can't know much about a team after 7 games with a new coaching staff.

Is that system going to magically create offence from a team of spare parts?

I didn't think it was possible for the powerplay to be worse than whatever Muller had them doing last year.

So don't trade him then? It's not like Conny had a smoking gun to his head. Toffoli is the exact type of player you move at the deadline.
