If you're a rival GM, do you want to give up 4 1st round picks for Ryan Johansen? Even if he becomes the player you hope he is, four years without a 1st is devastating in a cap world.

Definitely doesn't make sense for almost any team to do it. For those who could afford to give up 4 years of 1st round pick like the Kings, cap is an issue that could end up hurting you even more.
