Not really , one playoff run , as spectacular as it might be , isn't enough to consider it one of the greatest trade ever.
We'll take one of the best shot-blockers of all time - Bob Goldham, D.
He was one of the biggest players of his era, very good defensively, and had some offensive skill too.
Nice pick. Goldham was the BDA on my board, and I think the last guy remaining in the tier with Hatcher. His AST record:
Bob Goldham:
3, 5, 7, 8
all-star game (not cup winner): 1949, 1950
...which is, like, really good at this point. Goldham was enormous for his time and was generally quite healthy throughout his career. An elite #4 defenseman, or a passable #3.
With Pick 304 Brave Canadian (Guelph Platers) select Dan Boyle, defenseman.
That makes me on the clock, I'll have my pick within the next few minutes. Looking over a few guys.

The new format had the First Team All-Stars and the Second Team All-Stars be the cores of the two teams playing in the all-star game, with the reserves for the First Team consisting of players on American-based teams and the Second Team reserves consisting of Habs and Leafs. Because of the new format, the First Team All-Stars wore red jerseys while the Second Team wore white ones.
I pmed jkrx and King Forsberg. I have the second pick #308. I pmed 2 names to Tony D and BBS.Right winger Ed Westfall is a Vancouver Millionare. The notorious checker will form a potent 3rd unit for us along with Craig Ramsay and xxx.
i saw some video of goldham from mid '50s in which goldham led a rush. he was going fairly fast.We'll take one of the best shot-blockers of all time - Bob Goldham, D.

Rob was one of the best two way blue liners in his 15 years in the NHL. He was big, physical and good in both ends of the rink. He was a great leader and character player. He was an excellent skater for his size (6'2" 200lbs), a smart playmaker and power play quarterback. He was solid in his own zone as well. The only thing Ramage lacked was speed.
http://www.legendsofhockey.net/LegendsOfHockey/jsp/SearchPlayer.jsp?player=14649#.UR8zn6U4ujMWatson joined the Flyers as a full-time player in 1973 and was able to ease the transition to the National Hockey League by playing in Philadelphia with his older brother, defenseman Joe Watson. Jimmy's solid, physical play and willingness to play a smart, intimidating style made him fit in instantly with the Broad Street Bullies and he was soon a vital component of the Philadelphia club that was a consistent contender in the 1970's. By 1975, Watson was a playing in the All Star game and prior to the 1976 season he was a member of the Canada Cup squad that won the tournament by dispatching the Czechoslovakian team. In 1977 he joined a small group of players that have participated in an All-Star Game with their brothers when both he and Joe represented the Flyers at the mid-season classic.

They traded a borderline 2nd line centre and a touted 11th overall pick who was on route to exceed expectations for an elite 2nd line centre/average 1st liner.
Dallas was not the team gambling. HF logic might side with the team getting the prospect, but reality says that team is the gambling team.
I'm not a typical HF poster (I'm really just an ATD sub-forum poster), I guess my memories of the deal's details and context are unclear.I thought Iginla was more highly regarded than what you are describing.
