Do you mean it's so bad, it's so good?
No, I mean... Calgary doesn't need to pick up Jonathan Bernier. Given the salaries on board our team, and given that Bernier is a good young goalie whose contract expires next off season, we probably won't be able to afford the raise he will earn by next off-season. So we'll have paid assets for a year of Bernier, and the we'll have to flip him and let our younger goalies take over. Besides that, it puts us right back to having three goalies, and doesn't solve the issue that makes a Hiller trade worthwhile in the first place.
On the other side, Bernier is one of Toronto's most valuable pieces in terms of the trade market. He might be second only to Phaneuf, and he could even be further ahead. If they were intending to cash in on his value rather than keep him, they would've done so at the draft, when there were numerous goalie jobs looking to be filled, and when some teams were offering very good returns for goalies. Bernier would have been the most valuable goalie available if they had decided to make him so. Clearly, they're planning on keeping him as a core piece going forward, and justifiably so. If they're going to trade him, it will not be for a declining goalie, a meh prospect and a 3rd.
