The price will be higher to acquire him from Vegas.
Pitts would just be trying to get as much as possible before losing him, and the market will be incredibly small as anyone acquiring MAF would then have to use a protection slot on him. Pitts will have to take pretty much whatever's offered to them.
Whereas Vegas will be dealing to a much larger market, and won't be as desperate as Pitts to just get anything in return. It'll be post-expansion draft, so they'll have pretty specific things they'll be looking for at that time.
