On Nov. 8, 2013, the Calgary Flames repeated an unfortunate piece of history: they made a trade with the Edmonton Oilers.
The previous time it happened, they got Steve Staios. The Flames did miss the playoffs, but at least Staios scored the game-tying goal with just under two minutes to go against the Oilers to keep their playoff dream at the time alive. That was worth it.
The second go around, the Flames got Ladislav Smid - who had just been given a four-year extension - in exchange for Roman Horak and Laurent Brossoit.
That trade hasn't exactly worked out.
