Harmonic is a top four defender that is best served playing in that #4 slot, supporting a more offense oriented partner. Thats the role he plays in New York and the same one he'll play elsewhere. Physical guys with little offensive ability rarely return a lot in trade. A bakers dozen examples, all top four defense men, shows you where the value is. Guys of Hamonic's stature don't return a lot. Show me a trade in the past could years where a guy like Hamonic was the principle and returned a bounty of assets like those being discussed.

Hamonic is not the #4 on the Islanders. He is their #1 defenceman at even strength, and #2 on the PK.
And he can provide offense. He hasn't been much this year, but he had 33 points last year.
