There are three reasons. 1, you have to give to get. Some of us are realists and recognize you have to give quality to get quality. Sven is a quality prospect that will get the attention of another GM and probably get back a quality player in return. 2, you deal from a position of strength. Flames are deep at LW and, like it or not, Sven has been made redundant at the position. 3, Burke has said he wants to get bigger and grittier. Sven does not fit the ideal Burke and Treliving have for the team. This doesn't mean Sven is a bad player or not liked, it just means he is probably the best fit for bait to make a substantial deal where the team improves at a key position.
