Historically, the trade between Calgary and Toronto, which featured Gilmour swapping jerseys, remains the largest in franchise history, as it involved 10 skaters changing teams. On that day, recently hired General Manager Doug Risebrough pulled off a trade still talked about to this day: the Flames acquired future NHL head coach Craig Berube, Alexander Godynyuk, Gary Leeman, Michel Petit, and goalie Jeff Reese. In return, he shipped out Gilmour, Jamie Macoun, Kent Manderville, Ric Nattress, and goalie Rick Wamsley to Toronto.
