Tanguay is exactly what we needed. He'll help Calgary big time. They got him for Lambordi and a draft. I'm sure BG could of put something together with some effort.

It was Leopold, not Lombardi, but your point is well-taken (it must be; you're agreeing with me!). Seems to be a steal by the Flames on this one.

I think Leopold is a good young dman and a good pick up for the avs too.

Both teams got what they needed. Avs needed a PP guy for their team with the potential of losing Blake. Leopold will be that for them.

Calgary got more offence, giving up a dman, still nice to have Regher, Phaneuf, Hamrlick, etc...
