That seems like too big a return for Carolina. They'd have to give the Flames something extra, maybe the 2nd round pick (#42) this year.

I thought differently. To me Hanifan and Lindholm are superior to Hamilton and Bennett....Bennett hasn't shown to be anything special If Gilles is loved by Canes, then I can understand the trade.

They're not superior. But I think this is a pretty fair trade. It also allows Carolina to move Faulk. Bennett has had a pretty shaky time with the flames. Lindholm should be pretty good? I haven't really seen him. But a lot of people on these boards are a fan of him. Hamilton is better than hanifan bc he has more experience.

No no no no and ferland is not a 1 RW. Thats our problem...

Just throwing it out there, but the comments are either in disgust about the return one way, or in disgust about the return the other way. I am not a big fan of the trade tbh, but the fact that there is such conflicting things proves that the person who did this proposal, probably did a pretty good job. If anyone has made actual trades before, you will find that quite often both sides do feel that they gave up too much, that is usually a good sign. good work.
