That's not the situation though. Brodie's trade value isn't the highest right now so he's not going to command much. However, he's proven he can play at a very high level and he's young enough to turn it around, so why trade him?

1st of all, you have no idea what his trade value is around the league. The scenario I laid out is not unrealistic at all, nothing like your Tavares + Barzal for Monahan scenario. I'm not saying Brodie would return Mark Stone or Vlad Tarasenko. I'm talking about a player like a Charlie Coyle, or Josh Anderson for example.
2nd, why are you asking me why trade him? I just spelled out a scenario letter by letter as to why you would trade him. Someone offers you something you need, and at the same time you are able to replace him with a somewhat lesser player via free agency, where the net result is the team ends up being better.
