I already said that you can cut a deal with Vegas in my post, but if it was that cheap to cut a deal why wouldn't these players original teams just cut those deals and keep those players themselves?

Hoping a player you acquire via trade a few months before the expansion draft is just bad asset management... imagine the optics for any GM that gives up picks/prospects and then loses said player in the expansion draft anyways.
