Players who are well known to be available don't get dealt for cheap, it's always situations where it's a surprise, like all the reports of GMs saying they were shocked to Friedman or McKenzie that Hamilton was even available
If OEL gets moved it's treated like an auction

i'm not comparing the hamilton to calgary to what is going to happen for OEL. I'm suggesting a deal of d. hamilton for OEL is not light years apart from a value perspective.
