It's not like they are going to trade his rights for a 5th rounder if they are getting a 2nd round pick anyways.

The goal isn't for just his rights. They're 2.3m over the cap and NEED to move a guy like Leddy or Oduya (said to be on the block from a few people). If you can snag his rights and another serviceable young player like Leddy for a second round pick would you do it then?
A bit of good manners goes a long way. Teams like dealing with other teams who play nice.
