Mike would scored 13 goals last season, on pace for 20 to 25 goals.

We're not going to get the moon for Cammy. But a good smart trade for both teams is certainly do-able. Those 20-25 goals on Winnipeg would have helped get closer to or even into the playoffs last season so yeah teams I think would want him.
Ottawa could have used him badly in the playoffs.
Its a one year cap hit, not sure anyone with cap space is going to cry about it but thats just my opinion. Free agent market is weak sauce this year so any viable trade solution like prying a vet out of a rebuilding team at a decent cost will be favorable. If you were a contending team would you rather Cammy at 7 million with proven playoff scoring prowess or a guy like Hemsky or Havlat who are made of glass?
EDIT: If T.O are going to let Bozak and MacArthur walk I suppose you could swing a deal for the rights of those two for the price of Cammy as well. But we all know how trading with Toronto goes around here so yeah.
