Bet you could easily get a 4th or 5th round pick for him from a team fighting for division or a playoff spot. Low risk and you get a guy capable of putting up some points and maybe improving on that. Maybe Winnipeg, Ottawa, Toronto. Detroit in the west.
Just random thoughts.

Does he really have any trade value? He is uber soft, not what most teams want for a playoff push. He does not speak english, so the team trading for him has to have a player on their team to do translation. What happens if the Czech player on the other team does not want to be a translator? That player might have enough on his plate already and want to just focus on his own game. Then there is the blood clot issue. Could be tough to trade him.
