The point is to name an important player we lost due to mishandling a negotiation or seriously undervaluing or devaluing a player ie Nieuwendyk.

Cammalleri is the closest I can think and we just couldn't afford him. Sutter didn't tank the negotiation, he chose to sign Bouwmeester instead.

Losing Gaudreau would be literally unprecedented.
