Yes, I would consider it. We would be trading from a position of weakness (one of our top pair D) to address a position of strength (another top 6 winger, this one in a contract dispute). It isn't just about getting value in a trade. I think that trade would make us worse in the short term and give us big cap issues in the mid term. And if you aren't making us better short term / long term then there isn't much point, regardless of the perceived value you gain in the trade.

Its moot now anyway, and probably always was.
